This new 30-minute movie called Seeds of Freedom from the Gaia
Foundation is... free. And very well done.

It focuses on agricultural monopolies and seed patenting, which many people are unaware of. One of the big problems is that farmers who have saved their own seeds for generations are being sued for "seed piracy" if a patented seed's pollen happens to mix with their crop.
It's also narrated by Jeremy Irons and has input from respected scientist/philosopher/author Dr. Vandana Shiva (among many others).
