Summaries

In spite of living in one of the richest cities in the world, one in five New York City residents relies on emergency food services (soup kitchen and food pantries) each year. One out of four is a child. This 45-minute film documents the work of three of the largest emergency food programs in the city. All began with someone knocking at the door of a neighborhood house of worship. Through the compelling voices of the program directors, volunteers, and those being served, this film documents how a simple act of charity evolved into some of the most unique and innovative emergency food programs that feed over one million New Yorkers annually.
