The BAD Movie is a film by Storm Talifero dealing with the Black American Diet (the B.A.D.). Meet Storm in the video below...(40 mins)
The Standard American Diet, (the S.A.D.) is
in a sorry state, but the Black American Diet (the B.A.D.) is even worse!
From Southern Cooking to inner city neighborhoods full of fast foods and no organic produce, Black Americans are plagued with the highest rates of obesity, heart disease, diabetes, cancer, and hypertension in the country!
Genetically coded for life on a continent in which fresh produce grows year-round, our race is ill-disposed to modern food practices, and the effects on the body are deadly.
However, many African Americans are stepping outside the cultural boundaries of food traditions, and are practicing alternative lifestyles such as the Vegetarian, Vegan, and Raw Vegan Lifestyles.
This film takes an honest look not just at the problems with the BAD, but at some of the solutions.
The BAD Movie features interviews with celebrities, athletes, doctors and regular people who are eating alternative diets.
Join us as we seek to find out whether people are really losing weight and improving their health by eating alternative diets, what challenges and rewards they face, and how their lives are being impacted.
We hope that this film will increase your understanding and appreciation of diet and its important role in our past, present and future!
We are looking for participants, crew, funding and distribution!
Email us if you would like to help bring this exciting project to life!
The BAD movie brings important issues to greater awareness through the documentary film medium.
