In 2009, Gertten's production company was sued for defamation by Dole Food Company after the US screening of Bananas!*, a documentary film about a conflict between Dole and banana plantation workers in Nicaragua over alleged cases of sterility caused by the pesticide DBCP.
Dole urged festival officials to "immediately cease and desist" their sponsorship of the documentary Bananas!*, directed by Fredrik Gertten.
