Film Activity: Our Daily Bread

Typically we concentrate our efforts on referring our loyal readers to food-related activities in the New York City. But we just saw a disturbing and beautiful documentary, Our Daily Bread, that should be seen by anyone interested in the industrialization of food production. We slipped in to see it on the last day it was screening in New York. But that doesn't mean that those scattered throughout of the rest of the country can't see it.
If you can, check out this gorgeously shot film that has no narration or interviews - nor are they necessary. Only the gorgeous imagery and the natural sounds of planting, watering, slaughtering, picking and spraying are needed to mesmerize audiences.
