Super science documentary film - "Black Gold" (Marc Francis and Nick Francis, 2006)

A scalding view of how corporations get richer as African coffee growers get poorer. Multinational coffee companies dominate this industry worth over $80-billion, making coffee the most valuable trading commodity in the world after oil. But most of Africa's coffee farmers are being forced to abandon their coffee fields. Tadesse Meskela is one man on a mission to save his 74,000 struggling coffee farmers from bankruptcy. As his farmers strive to harvest some of the highest quality coffee beans on the international market, Tadesse travels the world in an attempt to find buyers willing to pay a fair price.
