Love Lunch Community
with Filmmakers Helen De Michiel and Sophie Constantinou
Join us on Wednesday, September 19th for the latest screening in our quarterly Documentary Film Series, in partnership with Northern California Grantmakers and Cal Humanities, featuring films supported by The San Francisco Foundation’s Documentary Fund.
Love Lunch Community is a one-hour documentary about Berkeley’s School Lunch Initiative. The film explores how a group of dedicated individuals came together to change how children eat and learn in school and to restore healthy food systems in a climate-changing world. This interactive presentation will include segments from the film (“webisodes”), along with a chance to meet the filmmakers. Directors Helen De Michiel and Sophie Constantinou will present the experience of creating the film as an open space documentary project and what this demonstrates for the future of documentary distribution and audience impact.

About the Documentary Film Series
The Documentary Film Series is a joint partnership between The San Francisco Foundation, Northern California Grantmakers and Cal Humanities, featuring films supported by The San Francisco Foundation’s Documentary (Doc) Fund.
The Doc Fund supports films exploring timely and compelling social justice issues that have been historically underexposed, misinterpreted, or ignored. By investing in the early production of documentary films, The San Francisco Foundation catapults Bay Area visionaries into theaters throughout the region and nationwide. Through their unique lens and powerful storytelling, film has the power to lift our imagination, change our perspective, and bring to light critical issues that compel us to take action.
Documentary films are an incredibly powerful tool for telling stories and advocating for pressing social justice issues. This new film series will provide an opportunity to meet the filmmakers of some of the most celebrated documentaries to come out of the Bay Area.
