Each month the Good Food Film Series, sponsored by the Moscow Food Co-op, features an entertaining and thought-provoking film followed by social time and discussion. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. 
  
Film summary: "Beyond the Motor City" directed by Aaron Woolf examines how Detroit, a symbol of America's diminishing status in the world, may come to represent the future of transportation and progress in America. Before being dubbed the Motor City, Detroit was once home to the nation's most extensive streetcar system. In fact, it was that vast network of streetcars that carried workers to the area's many car factories and ultimately it was the cars made in those factories that would soon displace the streetcars in Detroit and in every major American city.  The film offers a history of national transportation planning in the United States, ending with the Interstate System, and presents the counterexample of the Spanish AVE system, which in less than 20 years has linked the country from north to south and fostered economic development in the cities it serves.
