Created in 2012, the Sacramento Food Film Festival was born from the idea that we must educate the public about our food system, and work collaboratively to create positive change. We seek to bring educational films to our region that are otherwise ignored by traditional theaters - and to create a community dialog to improve food literacy and invoke action to improve our food system.

ReplyDeleteGenerally a good film will look at one or two important questions or themes and spend some time exploring the answers. However, great films will usually not give you the answers - they will let you decide for yourself.
