This past Wednesday, The Need To Grow, a 4WT produced documentary from Rob Herring and Ryan Wirick about activists and innovators in the food movement and narrated by Rosario Dawson, had its L.A. premiere at the Landmark in Westwood.

Many showed up to support the film including Democratic presidential candidate Cory Booker, who stayed until the very end to support his partner on this project she cared so deeply about.

The film demonstrates the importance of storytelling to help solve some of the world's most pressing problems and follows Alicia Serrato, an 8-year old challenging the ethics of a beloved organization, Eric Cutter, a renegade farmer struggling to keep his land as he revolutionizes resource efficient agriculture, and Michael Smith, an accomplished visionary inventor facing catastrophe in the midst of developing a game-changing technology.
