“The Poetry, Pleasures and Politics of Bread” is what the film’s poster says BREAD IN THE BONES is about, and that’s no false advertising. Bread is central to our civilization—it’s indeed in our bones. It’s nourishment for both our bodies and our collective souls, connecting us to culture, community—and to our taste buds. BREAD IN THE BONES takes us on an exploratory bread journey from France, Germany, Bulgaria, and beyond to Vermont (Hello, Bread and Puppet Theater’s Peter Schumann!) to…Central Maine! (hello to Solon resident and Railroad Square cofounder Stu Silverstein) to talk, taste and tango with bread. A host of narrators anecdotally tell complex, sometimes funny, sometimes charged stories of love and loss, work and pleasure, art and immigration, stories in which bread is always at the center of the cinematic table. Warning: you may be hungry after viewing! Sponsored by Maine Grains
