Eat Up

Filmed over 12 months inside Boston Public Schools’ cafeterias and kitchens, Eat Up tells a story of power, food, and the future of children, and how hard it can be in America to do the right thing in the face of unwieldy regulations and corporate interests. Eat Up ripples from Boston to cafeterias across the nation, offering a model for healthy eating and how to navigate the politics of our most difficult terrain: public schools.

Eat Up premiered at Independent Film Festival Boston, where it won the Karen Schmeer Award for Documentary Editing.

The VII Foundation Film Eat Up is available through iTunes and Amazon.
