PIEOWA

Pie is not only an iconic American dessert, it is a nonpartisan symbol of kindness, comfort, generosity, unity, and love - all the things we need more of right now. To convey how something as simple as a homemade pie can make the world a better place, filmmaker, author and piemaker Beth M. Howard aims her lens at her native Iowa, where pie is woven into the state's cultural fabric. We learn how pie - an immigrant that can be traced back to ancient Egypt - is as diverse as America's population. Wholesome, heartfelt, and hopeful, PIEOWA: A PIECE OF AMERICA is as satisfying as a slice of warm apple pie. Stick around for Q&A with filmmaker Beth M. Howard after the film showing - and yes, there will be pie!
