Recently buzzed-about dietary exposé Food, Inc. offered a glimpse into the sausage factory of corporate agriculture.
Ana Sofia Joanes's Fresh, screening Thursday at Pilsen's charmingly homey EP Theater, presents an alternative.
Joanes "celebrates the farmers, thinkers and business people across America who are re-inventing our food system," according to local promoter Matt Hoffman. Fresh features interviews with sustainable food advocates including The Omnivore's Dilemma author Michael Pollan, "grass farmer" Joel Salatin, and pro basketball player-turned-urban food activist Will Allen.
Fresh screens Thursday at 7:30 PM. Doors at 7. At the EP Theater, 1820 S. Halsted. $10 donation includes beer. RSVP here.

Even homier yet, from the comfort of your living room or office you could watch the new episode of Chicago based food podcast Sky Full of Bacon, which explores the issue of sustainable fish with a visit to a fish house, interviews with chefs and the sustainable fish broker Cleanfish: http://skyfullofbacon.com/blog/?p=274
