To Be Continued...

I am excited to put my video together.  I was able to interview 3 different women and it was exciting to hear their thoughts on food. I was hesitant at first to interview my grandmother, because I wasn't sure how she would react to the elements of women and feminism.  In the end my interview with her was by far my favorite.  Not only did she share really deep and meaningful connections with food, but I was also able to connect with her even more.  She really helped me to see how liberating being a mother and provider was even when she was growing up.  I tend to think that things sixty years ago were archaic, and that women were stuck in their gender roles, but she opened up my eyes to a different world.  It was also inspiring hearing their creative connections with food.  One of the women I interviewed is an artist, and her perspective on food was amazing because she could carry her art to the dinner table.  I will now continue onward by editing the film and  putting together their stories.  It will definitely be rough, I definitely battle with technology, but in the end I think it will open up people's eyes to food and its power.
