In Production
FOOD COOP takes us deep into the belly of one of America’s oldest cooperative food supermarket with a healthy dose of insight and wit.
Synopsis
In the middle of an economic crisis, in the shadow of Wall Street, an institution that represents a less well-known American tradition is booming; The Park Slope Food Coop, a cooperative supermarket where all 16,000 members work 3 hours per months to earn the right to buy the best food in New York at incredibly low prices. Inspiring as much hatred as enthusiasm, this coop founded in 1973 is probably the best implemented socialist experience in the United States.
