In First We Eat documentary filmmaker Suzanne Crocker turns the camera on herself and family of five in Yukon, Canada, as they embark on a project to only eat locally-grown food for one year. No grocery store food in the house. Is it possible to live off the land and remain healthy and happy?
Putting food sovereignty to the test in the far North of Canada - filmmaker Suzanne Crocker, living just 300 km from the Arctic Circle, removes absolutely all grocery store food from her house. For one year, she feeds her family of five only food that can be hunted, fished, gathered, grown or raised around Dawson City, Yukon. Add three skeptical teenagers, one reluctant husband, no salt, no caffeine, no sugar and -40 temperatures.
