Deserted

2019 | documentary, 20 min.

In the world’s wealthiest country, access to healthy food should be a basic human right, one shared by all. Lack of access to food with nutritional value, is an endemic problem across our country. In Baltimore City, many neighborhoods offer little in the way of decent choices for residents. This film attempts to raise awareness through the stories of people trying to make a difference and reclaim their right to healthy food.
