When journalist Beth Howard's young husband dies suddenly, she packs up the RV he left behind and hits the American highways. At every stop along the way--be it filming a pie documentary or handing out free slices on the streets of Los Angeles--Beth uses pie as a way to reach out and find purpose. Making Piece powerfully shows how one courageous woman uses the simple act of giving to others to triumph over tragedy. It tells of the role of fate, second chances, and the strength found in community.
