Fifty million people in the U.S. * 1 in 4 children * don’t know where their next meal is coming from. “A Place at the Table” directors, Kristi Jacobson and Lori Silverbush, examine the issue of hunger in America through the lens of three people struggling with food insecurity. Ultimately, this film shows us how hunger poses serious economic, social and cultural implications for our nation, and that it could be solved once and for all if the American public decides * as they have in the past * that making healthy food available and affordable is in the best interest of us all.
