We all have the power to make positive changes in the world, and food is at the center of that change. Our film tells an interconnected story of how food interacts with and transforms every part of our lives. By threading together the stories of a dynamic group of innovators, we cast a new vision for a more just and regenerative world. Our lens focuses on innovators across agriculture, healthcare, and education as they work to transform our broken food system. We follow Thabiti Brown, Head of School at Codman Academy, Lisa Mcdowell, Director of Nutrition at St Joseph Mercy Hospitals, and Mark Shepard, Founder & Farmer of New Forest Farm to discover the biggest challenges and the real solutions we face in agriculture, healthcare, and education. Our film documents the hard truth about where we are today and provides tangible, working examples: farming that will feed our future, healthy food that will heal us, and a new model for holistic education. Each of our experts provides tangible actions that each one of us can make in our daily lives to be a part of the change.
