ACEP Film Official Selection for MôTif Film Festival

A film produced by ACEP’s Amanda Byrd is an official selection for screening in the 2018 MôTif Film Festival.

“An Edible Classroom” highlights the Southeast Island School District on Prince of Wales Island in Alaska. The district incorporated a biomass-heated greenhouse program across all of its schools. It has been an incredible success in getting healthier school lunches and teaching kids about growing their own food.

The MôTif Film Festival’s objective is to touch communities of storytellers and audiences across regions, genres, ethnicities, gender and orientation to include, deepen, and expand our connections to diverse and underrepresented groups around the world.

The film festival will be held Aug. 3-5 at Venue on Second Avenue in Fairbanks.
