Why This Film, Why Now

Food Insecurity isn't just about hunger, it's about health, dignity, and the future we share. Too often, it hides in plain sight, reduced to statistics instead of stories. More Than a Meal was created to change that: to redefine how we see food access and to highlight the people and communities building real solutions. 


At a moment when processed food is everywhere and nourishing food feels out of reach for too many, we can no longer confuse being fed with being well. This film invites us to look closer, listen deeper, and act together - because our health and our future depend on it. 

About the Film

Summary: 

More Than a Meal explores the hidden crisis of food insecurity in America. Beyond the idea of "food deserts," the film reveals how affordability, access, and dignity shape what ends up on our tables - and how communities are building powerful solutions.


Director's Note:

"I began this journey with a simple question: why do so many families in one of the wealthiest countries in the world still struggle to eat well? Through interviews with farmers, food pantries, food banks, and families, I discovered that food insecurity is about more than being fed - it's about being nourished. My hope is that this film sparks action, empathy, and change." - Mia Jean, Documentarian & Filmmaker
