1976 founded DENKmal-Film Production with Claus Strigel. Whether coincidence or otherwise, Verhaag’s films have often portrayed people who went on to win the “Alternative Nobel Prize”: Percy Schmeiser in Percy Schmeiser – David versus Monsanto, Hans Peter Dürr in Living on the Borders, Vandana Shiva in Seeds and Seed Multinationals and Ibrahim Abouleish in Sekem - Born of the Sun.

The film Der Bauer der das Gras wachsen hört (The Farmer Who Hears the Grass Growing) has so far won nine awards, including “Best Ecological Film” at the 2010 Greenscreen Festival. Every class in the world should see this film. Critics and viewers alike have heaped praise on the film. Statements from scientists themselves suggest that 95% of those conducting research in the field of genetic engineering are funded to do so by industry.

Basically, is that; but the way she teaches blue eyed people how is to be an African-American is pretty touching.

I recommend this one to everybody. Unfortunately, the film has lost none of its pertinence: in fact, it is now more relevant than ever. During the 1980s, plans for a nuclear reprocessing plant in the nearby Bavarian town of Wackersdorf motivated Bertram Verhaag to make three anti-nuclear films.

For almost ten years, Life Running Out of Control has been a DVD blockbuster. This visionary idea fell into place long before the word sustainable was on everyone‘s lips, at a time where the term organic was still connected to muesli munchers.

During our shoots a representative of the Royal Press Office had to be present at all times, vigilant over every spoken word, but otherwise remaining unobtrusive throughout.

Verhaag’s latest film, The Farmer and his Prince, about Prince Charles’ organic farm and its charismatic manager, David Wilson, premiered in November 2014 and has since enjoyed a very successful theatrical run. Merely 5% are independent. For over 30 years, Bertram Verhaag has been making documentaries through his own production company, DENKmal-Film.

We could only realize this project thanks to Bernward Geier and his valuable contacts to the Royal Household.

We were convinced of the project‘s potential and were sure that an exclusive permit for shooting on an exemplary, royal organic farm could only mean that we were bearing a diamond in the rough. „SCIENTISTS UNDER ATTACK“ is a documentary thriller on the independence of science.

DENKmal is, in the truest sense, a “social business”. Scientists Under Attack is a documentary thriller on genetic engineering and the independence of science. Other films, including The Agro Rebel, The Farmer and the Earthworms and The Beloved Cattle, have already achieved cult status and are regularly screened as examples of organic farming.
