National Geographic has released the first trailer for a new documentary from director Ron Howard titled We Feed People. The film focuses on renowned chef José Andrés and his nonprofit World Central Kitchen’s incredible mission and evolution over 12 years, from being a scrappy group of grassroots volunteers to becoming one of the most highly regarded humanitarian aid organizations in the disaster relief sector.
This is a truly inspiring individual doing great things in the world and this doc about his efforts in trying to change the world and make it a better place “one plate at a time”.
In the film, “Oscar-winning director Ron Howard shows chef José Andrés and the WCK (World Central Kitchen) team at locations across the globe as the multiple threats of a changing climate require split-second responses and innovative, immediate solutions to so many life-threatening emergencies. Since Andrés first came to the U.S. from Spain over 30 years ago and began a remarkable culinary career that grew to locations in almost a dozen cities internationally, his passion and life’s work have gone hand in hand with activism. Seeing hunger relief as the first and most vital line of aid, and one that too often gets bogged down in bureaucracy and red tape, Andrés and WCK have become part of a worldwide, energetic team supporting food security one plate at a time.”
We Feed People will stream on Disney+ starting May 27th, 2022.
