'The first Living Food Communities documentary, a series of short videos being produced by Slow Food as part of the 4Cities4Dev project, was shot in Kenya. The 23-minute production looks at the Pokot Ash Yogurt Presidium, featuring beautiful landscapes and memorable characters as it tells the story of this unique product and how it became key to the community\'s identity.   The highland farmers talk about their traditions and livestock, their most valuable asset, with great passion and a comparison with the desperation of the city is striking. This juxtaposition restore a sense of worth to the rural subsistence economy, which in this case is able to effectively guarantee food security to the community and provides a concrete example of an integrated approach that puts food at the center of actions to protect biodiversity, community, culture and traditions.  The Living Food Communities films are directed by Francesco Amato and Stefano Scarafia and edited by Paolo Casalis for the Bodà production company.
