Greentopia | FILM Soul Food Junkies Screening
Date: Sep. 13, 2012
Start Time: 6:00 PM
Directed By: Byron Hurt | Running Time: 60 mins With a mixture of fondness and tragic fascination, Byron Hunt recalls growing up with soul food at his family dinner table – fried chicken, collard greens seasoned with ham hocks, macaroni and cheese, fried pork chops and more – as well as the effects of that diet on his father, whose premature death from pancreatic cancer prompted this culinary retrospective. The intimate and respectful Soul Food Junkies explores the origins of this quintessentially African American cuisine whose history is as rich as the food itself, and its enduring legacy – in terms of both health and culture. It will make you think. It will make you hungry. Q & A via Skype with Byron Hurt, Director. Showing at The Little Theatre (L1), 240 East Avenue, Rochester, NY 14607. Cost is $10 or get the $60 All Access VIP Film Pass - admittance to every Greentopia | FILM screening as well as the Closing Party on the 14th at 9pm.
