April 5th, 12th, and 19th: Food For Thought Film Festival, New York, NY

The filmmakers of Media That Matters: Good Food collection winners Asparagus! (A Stalk-umentary) and The Meatrix will be screening their films at the second annual Food For Thought Film Festival for three consecutive Saturdays on April 5th, 12th, and 19th.

The goal of the Food For Thought Film Festival is to raise public awareness of current food issues to promote action within communities for the protection and sustainability of basic human rights and the overall health of the environment.
