The Ridgefield Playhouse and Nature’s Temptations Market have partnered to bring a powerful new documentary, Eating Our Way To Extinction, to the big screen tonight - Thursday, September 16 at 7pm - in the only area screening. The film, part of the Cohen and Wolf, P.C. Movie Series, urges viewers to look at their own daily habits, raising questions about the true cost of our food. This hard-hitting and visually stunning film experience is narrated and executive produced by Academy Award winning actress Kate Winslet. Eating our Way to Extinction takes audiences on a cinematic journey around the world, from the depths of the Amazon rainforests to the Taiwanese Mountains, the Mongolian desert, the US Dust Bowl, the Norwegian Fjords and the Scottish coastlines, telling the story of our planet through shocking testimonials, poignant accounts from indigenous people most affected by our ever-changing planet, globally renowned figures and leading scientists. This film sends a simple but impactful message by uncovering hard truths and addressing, on the big screen, the most pressing issue of our generation – ecological collapse. Confronting and entertaining, this documentary allows audiences to question their everyday choices, industry leaders and governments. Featuring a wealth of world-renowned contributors, including Sir Richard Branson and Tony Robbins, it has a message of hope that will empower audiences.
