Bethlehem Evangelical Lutheran “Sustainable” Film Screening

April 24, 2019 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm

Bethlehem Evangelical Lutheran Church (9401 S Oakley)
to host the movie
SUSTAINABLE

Part of earth day mini film festival

Wednesday, April 24, 2019

Come at 7:00 pm to watch the film and be part of the conversation afterwards.

The film is an investigation of the economic and environmental instability of America’s food system, from the agricultural issues we face — soil loss, water depletion, climate change, pesticide use — to the community of leaders who are determined to fix it. Sustainable is a film about the land, the people who work it and what must be done to sustain it for future generations.

The narrative of the film focuses on Marty Travis, a seventh-generation farmer in central Illinois who watched his land and community fall victim to the pressures of big agribusiness. Determined to create a proud legacy for his son, Marty transforms his profitless wasteland and pioneers the sustainable food movement in Chicago.
