Amarillo (USA)

The artificial flavor of banana is based on a fruit that no longer exists. Gross Michelle was, until 1960, America’s most popular strand of bananas. Its obituary is bleak, gooey, and speaks about the past, present and future global food politics.

Ana Pérez López is a Spanish filmmaker and journalist who is currently in the Experimental Animation MFA Program of CalArts. Her work questions the role of truth in the days of the Internet.
