Eat Up

About This Movie

Eat Up (2019) dives into the often-overlooked battleground of school lunch reform. The atmosphere is a mix of determination and frustration as our entrepreneur navigates the complex maze of regulations and the entrenched systems within Boston's public schools. The pacing feels organic, almost like you're on the journey with her over that year. There's a rawness to the documentary; you get a sense of the hurdles she faces, but also the small victories that come with changing minds and palates. The interactions with the lunch ladies, who are as much a part of the story as the food itself, add a human touch, showcasing their dedication amidst the chaos. This isn't just about food; it's about community and the fight for better choices in education.
