Farm land is the new gold in the 21st century and one of the most profitable new spots for farming is Ethiopia.
In this documentary, discover how the Ethiopian government leases out millions of hectares of allegedly unused land to foreign investors. Sadly, the dream of prosperity has soured and resulted in the most massive forced evictions in modern history and a vicious spiral of violence.
Follow the investigation against the foreign land-investments as it exposes their impact on people's lives.
In the pursuit of truth, meet investors, development bureaucrats, persecuted journalists, struggling environmentalists and the small farmers who have been kicked out of their land.
