Hungry

Jillie Simon and Thomas Simon | USA | 2015 | 23’

Allison, a shy, idealistic grade school teacher, has a fear of speaking up in public (other than in front of her kids). But when she finds out that children in her school are going hungry - thanks to federal cutbacks in the school lunch programs - it compels her to do things she wouldn't have thought she could do, including confronting a Congressman, in order to help the children.
