Nothing Like Chocolate Trailer from Kum-Kum Bhavnani on Vimeo.
The Grenada Chocolate Company, a cooperative created in 1999 with the intention “to revolutionize the cocoa-chocolate system,” is the subject of Kum-Kum Bhavnani’s award-winning documentary. Narrated by Susan Sarandon, Nothing Like Chocolate takes an intimate look at the people behind “the world’s smallest chocolate factory.” It also leads viewers on an informative trek into the global chocolate economy, assembling borrowed footage from news reports, other documentaries and interviews with big-picture thinkers such as Michael Pollan and Vandana Shiva. The film succeeds in striking fine balances between being entertaining and educational, disturbing and inspiring – a winning concoction that is poised to change the chocolate-consuming habits of its audience.
