Food Film Festival
The Food Film Festival is a three-day long festival and will take place
the 18th, 19th
and
20th of March, in Studio/K, Amsterdam. During the festival, more than 20 food films
and documentaries will be
screened, together with an extensive program with debates,
workshops, art and
music.
The Food Film
Festival is about everything related to food: Food in its broadest sense.
There is so much to say about food and so much food says about us.
Food is culture, food is identity.
At the same time, food and its production are the cause of multiple severe
global
issues. Industrial mass production of food is causing environmental pollution,
animal
abuse and can be accounted for a great share in the worldwide CO2 emissions. Also,
Western subsidized food production creates an unequal global market. Through a better
food system, poverty, hunger, pollution and conflict can be turned into
equality, health,
a clean environment and a peaceful world.
The Food Film Festival is a Dutch event. Workshops are in Dutch, a great
share of the
films are in English and some of the events are in English.
See programma for more information about the films and events.
The Youth Food Movement
The Food Film Festival is an initiative of the Youth Food Movement. The
Youth Food
Movement is a network of young people from different kind of backgrounds, young

Food
A big part of the Food Film Festival program will be about… food. A variety
of
different workshops will be given. Ever wanted to know how to make sausage or
how
to taste the difference between Californian and French wine? Do note that
workshops
will be given in Dutch.
Studio/K has a restaurant that can serve up to 40 people. During the festival
the
kitchen will offer a menu based on the Youth Food Movement ideology:
ingredients
that are well thought about, with extra attention for the use of fair,
sustainable and
local ingredients. Vegetables and fruits will be chosen with special attention
for their
availability during the season. The restaurant will be opened from 11.00-22.00

together
to offer a good, simple and affordable menu.
