Documentary: 'Seeds for the Future' | BBVA & El Celler de Can Roca

A journey into protecting foods that are at risk of extinction.The piece, which stars Joan, Josep and Jordi Roca, begins with the alarming extinction of crop diversity: a premise that the brothers discover in their local and personal surroundings, and that they continue to explore in other parts of the world. As they delve into biodiversity conservation solutions offered by a series of international experts, the protagonists begin a journey aimed at safeguarding their culinary heritage and family legacy (a challenge linked to their mother, Monserrat Fontané, who has run the Can Roca family eatery for more than 50 years).
