Stories of work and play, of love and loss... and bread. Bread has been at the center of human life and creativity for at least the Iast ten thousand years - it is in our bones and a witness to history. This essay documentary brings bread to the front of the Iine and explores its reIation to poIitics, poetry and pIeasure. The loaf of bread is the vehicIe through which we explore stories of sex and death, immigration and refugees, sociaI justice and the counter-cuIture, and of art, work and pleasure. Love it or hate it, everyone has a reIationship with bread. This simple stapIe food is brought to life by the wiId energy of yeast, perhaps our first companion animaI, and is a metaphor of transformation that mirrors Iife itself. And it is the only metaphor you can eat. Shot in Canada, the US and throughout Europe, this is a beautifuI and profound journey into a subject that has come to have important meaning in our times. |
