We live in a world of seeds. From our morning toast to the cotton in our clothes, they are quite literally the stuff and staff of life, supporting diets, economies, and civilizations around the globe. Just as the search for nutmeg and the humble peppercorn drove the Age of Discovery, so did coffee beans help fuel the Enlightenment and cottonseed help spark the Industrial Revolution. And from the fall of Rome to the Arab Spring, the fate of nations continues to hinge on the seeds of a Middle Eastern grass known as wheat.

Men alligevel, er misbruget og alt det der følger med, sjældent noget vi taler om. Og det har konsekvenser. Thor Allentoft er vokset op med to forældre der havde et misbrug. Og så er han fast besluttet på, at skabe plads til samtalen og dem det hele handler om. Børnene der siden blev voksne. De der har noget på hjerte. Og dem der ønsker at ...
