Cynthia Hill crafts documentaries that take a complex approach to critical contemporary issues, creating story-driven and visually rich films. The subjects of her work range from tobacco farming to Latino migrant labor and Southern foodways, and challenge dominant narratives about the rural South. Cynthia’s films lay bare the assumptions behind the systems that drive people’s everyday lives. Producer/director credits include Tobacco Money Feeds My Family, The Guestworker, February One, and the Peabody-award winning A Chef’s Life. Cynthia is the co-founder of the Southern Documentary Fund, a nonprofit organization established to support place-based storytelling.
