Pressure Cooker: Cooking up a Future

Pressure Cooker Trailer from TakePart on Vimeo.

Hard to tell only from watching the trailer, but Pressure Cooker seems like an inspiration already. Not very different from what Jamie Oliver does with his Fifteen foundation, Pressure Cooker tells the story of Wilma Stephenson, a passionate teacher that uses the culinary art to sweeten the tough lifes of the working-class kids of Philadelphia. The work and heart she puts into the project (again, from what I’ve seen on the trailer) is impressive (and let’s remember, different from the former example, she is not a celeb chef).

All my congratulations to her and the team (I still didn’t get how TakePart is involved in the project, but seems a beeautiful initiative).
