Imagine a world where real meat is produced sustainably without the need to breed, raise and slaughter animals. This is no longer science fiction, it’s now within reach. At the forefront of this urgent frontier is Mayo Clinic trained cardiologist Dr. Uma Valeti, the co-founder and CEO of Upside Foods (previously Memphis Meats), the leading start-up of the “cultivated” meat revolution. 

Exploring a game-changing solution, Meat the Future is narrated by Jane Goodall and features music by Moby. 

We would like to thank our film’s feature sponsors, Free Spirit Tours and Conscious Water!
