Slow Motion Food Film Festival

I am a member of Slow Food Nova Scotia and volunteered to play a part (however small it was) promoting the  Slow Motion Food Film Fest that takes place this weekend in Wolfville NS.   


Imagine - 

• 29 films over three days
• 4 major events - The Slow Motion Barn Dinner (Thursday night),  Amazing Food Race (Saturday morning), Harvest Gallery South American Wine Tasting (ASaturday evening) and the Slow Motion Awards Ceremony (Free - Sunday afternoon 6:30 pm) with Hosts Ann MacKenzie (Film NS) and actor Jason Priestley
• Filmmakers attending from Manitoba, Ottawa, Quebec, Georgia, Nova Scotia, Italy and Brazil!
• The Canadian premieres of Perfect Sense (Ewan MacGregors newest film) El Camino del Vino ( Argentinian sommelier loses his sense of taste) and Blood Into Wine (Rock Band Tool frontman opens winery in Arizona desert). 
• The World Premiere of Land Awakening (Beautiful movie that explores PERMACULTURE)
• Contentious films that expose whats wrong with our current systems (DIVE! Milks Wars, Planeat, La Reine Malade)
• Inspiring films that give us hope (GROW! And This is my Garden, Voices of Transition).
• Foodie Favorites (El Bulli: Cooking in Progress, Chocolat, Big Night)
• And riveting films held over from The Atlantic Film Festival due to popular demand (Cooking History)
