I promise not to write next week about media making me grumpy, but today we look at The Grab, an "eco-thriller" on food and water security issues that loses the real plot to its narrative choices.
This would have been a much better documentary if its participants hadn't taken such a cynical approach to their audience, and just spoken plainly about the issues faced on US and African land alike, and through climate change.
