Grant Baldwin, also the film's director, is four months into a six-month experiment with his film producer wife, Jen Rustemeyer, of subsisting on food waste alone, and the camera shows Baldwin climbing on top of an industrial-sized dumpster filled with hundreds of tubs of perfectly good, nonexpired hummus.
