We watched the film together with local farmers, which made the experience even more meaningful. We received comments saying that it naturally inspired deep respect for the people who have been protecting the land, and that they were able to watch the film with a full and grateful heart.

We invited local producers to join our dinner gathering after the movie, and made sure each of them had time to speak. Sharing their stories in their own words and having those stories truly heard created an atmosphere filled with positive energy — even without solving everything, it felt like something was beginning to shift in a good direction.

“Every single moment was rich and fulfilling.”
After the screening, we invited vendors of our farmers market to introduce themselves and share their thoughts. It felt like a natural continuation of the film — hearing the honest voices of farmers and chefs was a truly special experience.

— Organizer: Asia Shokudo Mogunoki

We often forget, but the reason we can eat is because each producer faces nature with care and dedication. This event gave us a rare and valuable chance to understand how they think, the challenges they face, and their passion. Watching the film while tasting real food and beer made by these very producers was simply the best.

— Organizer: Hisaya-odori Park

After the screening, we created time for conversation and sharing a meal. We used local ingredients and prepared them in a way that delighted all five senses. Through the screening, we felt a beautiful spark — people organically connecting, new communities forming, and a gentle food movement beginning to grow.

— Organizer: Slow Food Youth Network Tokyo

The salad we had after the film felt even more delicious. It was a powerful and valuable moment that made us want to bring this film not only to people living in cities but also directly to farmers and producers.

— Organizer: Plant-based food brand “Grino”

Alice’s warm message truly touched our hearts, and feelings of gratitude for the farmers overflowed. Some participants were moved to tears by the heartfelt messages shared by others. The time for sharing was truly wonderful! Many who watched the film said they wanted to screen it in their own communities too — Alice’s delicious revolution looks like it’s ready to keep spreading.

— Organizer: saqu・la

From an eco-friendly perspective, we chose not to print flyers and instead spread the word by word of mouth. For the tea and snacks at the gathering, I was able to support a local shop I care about. The sweets they made used okara (soy pulp) that would have otherwise been discarded by a nearby tofu shop — bringing attention to both food waste and the power of people connecting to each other.
