If you’re curious about the stories behind your food, this festival offers a thoughtful look at global food systems. You’ll watch ten films on land grabbing, pesticide use, water conflicts, and the often-overlooked role of women in agriculture. The festival runs from mid-October through November, giving you time to catch screenings that challenge assumptions about what’s on your plate. It’s a chance to see how topics like cocoa farming in Ghana or sustainable fishing affect communities worldwide. Beyond the films, the event pairs each screening with debates that invite you to explore these subjects further. These conversations offer fresh perspectives and encourage critical thinking about food production and its broader impacts. Whether you’re passionate about environmental issues or curious where your food comes from, the discussions are engaging and thought-provoking. It’s a space where curiosity meets meaningful dialogue, making the experience both informative and rewarding.
