The voice of the independent restaurateur is seldom heard, yet the restaurant industry is the second largest employer in the United States and the heart of any city. In the summer of 2020, when restaurants are doubly hit hard by COVID-19 and the aftermath of George Floyd’s murder, Chef Elizabeth Falkner sets out across the country to check in with her renowned chef and restaurateur colleagues. Former restaurant owner, award-winning chef, and lifelong activist, she wants to know how they are coping with the impossible task of keeping their doors open.

Director Pete Ferriero and Chef Elizabeth Falkner will be in attendance and will participate in a post-screening Q&A with festival host Bob Blumer.

On this special evening, we will also screen and award the youth winner of the Nourish Nova Scotia Food & Film Challenge, where we invited children and youth of all ages to make a short film about Everybody Eats: The Power of Plants. The winner will receive a $500.00 prize from Nourish Nova Scotia to support a healthy eating program or initiative in their school/community, as well as $500.00 in equipment from CBC.
