Origins of a Meal
Bananas, eggs, and tuna: three basic foodstuffs with three wildly different points of origin.

As Moullet’s investigation deepens, however, the film moves beyond the confines of a simple exploration of food origins into more political and social realms, not only relating to food but also to the medium of film.
