Food Savers

Films for the Humanities & Sciences (Firm) (Added Author). Films Media Group (Added Author). Global Screen GmbH (Added Author).

Summary: If politics and society have already formulated a goal to stop food waste, why is it so hard to make this a reality? From a business perspective, throwing food away can pay off, despite environmental and hunger consequences. Three years after the international box office hit Taste the Waste, an investigative documentary about worldwide food waste, the film making team meets farmers, supermarket executives, cooks, design students and citizens fighting to reduce food waste along the production and consumption chain. They also examine practical solutions and look at a diverse social movement towards a greater appreciation of food.
