A Place at the Table- playing at the Michigan Theatre

Check out this great documentary this week at the Michigan Theatre! 

For times and a trailer of the film, visit http://www.michtheater.org/shows/a-place-at-the-table . 

49 million people in the U.S.—one in 4 children—don’t know where their next meal is coming from, despite our having the means to provide nutritious, affordable food for all Americans. Directors Kristi Jacobson and Lori Silverbush examine this issue through the lens of 3 people who are struggling with food insecurity: Barbie, a single Philadelphia mother who grew up in poverty and is trying to provide a better life for her two kids; Rosie, a Colorado fifth-grader who often has to depend on friends and neighbors to feed her and has trouble concentrating in school; and Tremonica, a Mississippi second-grader whose asthma and health issues are exacerbated by the largely empty calories her hardworking mother can afford. From the people who brought you Food, Inc., A Place at the Table features Top Chef’s Tom Colicchio, Oscar-winning actor Jeff Bridges, and many others.*
