A cinematic odyssey that takes viewers from the dawn of humanity to the cutting of edge of modern agriculture – from a community orchard in the Hollywood Hills to the race to save rare mangos from industrialisation, The Fruit Hunters will change not just the way we look at what we eat, but what it means to be human.
