A SURPRISE HIT WITH PUBLIC LIBRARIES
Libraries across the country are not just ordering this documentary about a vegetarian who moves to Alaska and sets off on a search for a sustainable and ethical meal, they’re also setting up screenings and events.
One public library director simply called Eating Alaska, “a quirky Food, Inc.” Others are inviting chefs, urban gardeners, homesteaders, food activists and the filmmaker to speak; sharing wild, local and artisan nibbles, and talking about food justice and the impact of the industrial food system on our bodies, families and communities. One upcoming event is at the Scranton Library in Madison, Connecticut on July 15th.
We’ve also created a 43 page downloadable users and discussion guide to give teachers and screening organizers ideas for creative and educational use of the film.
