We met Ana in September at the 2nd New York City Cowcus, where we had the chance to hear about her exciting documentary film, Really Delicious. Ana is Swiss-born, Brooklyn-based filmmaker who has been traveling across the country for the past 2 years interviewing people who are re-inventing the food system in America. Her subjects include Joel Salatin of Polyface Farms and Will Allen of Growing Power, as well as many other farmers, thinkers, and businesspeople. The film will start playing at festivals beginning in March.

After our meeting at the Cowcus, I requested an interview with Ana and she agreed to let Ulla and I stop by her studio. In these excerpts from the interview, Ana talks about why she decided to make this film, what she has learned from the experience, and her thoughts on the potential for this quickly growing grass-roots food movement to reach an effective tipping point.
