Our Daily Bread

in 2007 Films & Events

City Hall Arts Center
MONDAY 19 SOLD OUT!
In choosing this film as one of the Ten Best of 2006, Manohla Dargis of The New York Times wrote, “The Austrian filmmaker Nikolaus Geyrhalter’s superb documentary is an unblinking, often disturbing look at industrial food production from field to factory. Mr. Geyrhalter has said that he is fascinated by ‘zones and areas people normally don’t see.’ His fascination is our gain. OUR DAILY BREAD can be extremely difficult to watch, but the film’s formal elegance, moral underpinning and intellectually stimulating point of view also make it essential. You are what you eat; as it happens, you are also what you dare to watch.” Sponsored by Vermont Compost Company. Community Partners: Peace and Justice Center, Rural Vermont, Institute for Social Ecology. No rating, 92 minutes (no dialogue). Film Website
