Devour! Opening Gala Film: Haute Cuisine.
We’re thrilled to have internationally-renowned chef, Dominique Crenn curate her favourite food film of all-time, Haute Cuisine (Les saveurs du Palais).
Dominique Crenn was exposed to French fine dining almost from birth. While still a young girl growing up in Versailles and Paris, she would visit celebrated and luxurious restaurants with her politician father. Such early access to the gastronomic intricacies of her country, combined with the comforts of her mother’s rural home cooking, instilled in Crenn a lifelong love of French cuisine.
But Crenn is not someone who does things by the book. A Ted Talk regular, who speaks passionately about defining success, being a woman in a male-dominated industry, creativity and the importance of sustainability, she has always followed her own unique path.
On this special evening, we will also award the youth winner of the Nourish Nova Scotia Food & Film Challenge. We invited children and youth of all ages to make a short film under three minutes about serious food issues–Sugar, Food Waste and Healthy Bodies. The winner will receive a $500.00 prize to support a healthy eating program or initiative in their school/community.
