Eco-Movie Night

Dive!
“Living Off America's Waste”

Event: Saturday, August 7 at 7:00pm

Every year in America we throw away 96 billion pounds of food. That's 263 million pounds a day...11 million pounds an hour...3,000 pounds a second. What kind of society creates this much trash?

Inspired by a curiosity about our country’s careless habit of sending food straight to landfills, the multi award-winning documentary DIVE! follows filmmaker Jeremy Seifert and friends as they dumpster dive in the back alleys and gated garbage receptacles of Los Angeles’ supermarkets. In the process, they salvage thousands of dollars worth of good, edible food – resulting in an inspiring documentary that is equal parts entertainment, guerilla journalism and call to action. (45 minutes)

Donations always appreciated.
