This film is generously sponsored by L’Auberge de France (304 Front St. Belleville), home to master bread maker Bill Lundy.

A look at two sides of the bread industry and the people who make it whether traditional artisan bakers or multinational corporations. This beautifully photographed film surveys a handful of small European bakeries and compares their product and production methods with those of industrial-scale operations. As one of the world’s most widely consumed goods, bread has a significant impact on our planet from supporting farmers and crop production to driving demand for pesticides and fossil fuels.
