Flour, salt, water… sometimes fried over open fires...sometimes
steamed, people have baked these simple ingredients in myriads of breads for thousands of years. These earthly treasures
often evolved into fingerprints of their culture.

Through the lens of bread, this documentary project
takes viewers on a visual journey that also illustrates how connected we are as human
beings.
As personal as a grandmother's touch,
as universal as the cry for hunger or the desire for pleasure... bread serves up a platter of narratives. Ask someone
to share a "bread memory" and you get stories steeped in history, survival, pain and joy.
BAKE BREAD... SHARE STORIES...TASTE LIFE!
