"In southern Mexico, women spend several hours a day making the perfect dough to produce large, thin tortillas. The video is a tribute to the sustenance of life and texture of life itself, threatened by the introduction of genetically modified maize, which can devastate corn types that have been developed naturally over millennia. "

" In ell Popol Vuh, the sacred book of the Quiche Maya, describes the origin of man as a being made of corn. The video suggests a human being transformed into a Barbie, or a transgenic corn. "

" The Monsanto House of the Future was created by Monsanto's plastics division. Existed in Disneyland, California, from 1957 to 1967. It was made mostly of plastic and had ideas such as microwave dishwasher used instead of water. It is said that rather than demolished in one day took two weeks because the wrecking ball bounced. DAS is the perfect place to "wipe out everything," burying the house of transgenic corn. "

" In January 2007 the Mexican government approved a rise in prices corn, a product based on the Mexican diet. This irresponsible action threatens the power of millions of Mexicans living in extreme poverty, and is putting at risk the landraces of maize into the country's maize transgénico.
Suben y bajo es una analogía, mientras sigan subiendo los precios de las tortillas, los mexicanos seguiremos bajando de calidad de vida."

"A partir de que el Partido Acción Nacional (PAN) toma el poder de la República Mexicana, se dieron muchos cambios en la alza de la canasta básica, de igual modo se incrementaron las posibilidades del ingreso a nuestro país del maíz transgénico. La pieza ( que en un principio fue cartel y ahora se plantea para intervención sobre muro), hace referencia de manera irónica a la paradoja de la alza al precio de la tortilla and not used to the PAN, as the current governing party government.
