Beyond the Plate: “If you want to tell a human story, the best place to start is at the table.” Photographer Eric Wolfinger takes us on a journey far beyond the kitchen’s reach to discover stories around the world while forging his own. Director Anton Lorimer
Saffron--the Search for Red Gold: No plant is more mysterious and valuable on the international market than saffron. German Christoph Hanke travels to the farthest reaches of Iran, close to the border of Afghanistan, to buy the plant for some of Europe’s top chefs. Director Andreas Ewels
Nests of Gold: A visual journey following one of the world’s most expensive foods–harvested bird’s nests. From its creation in the remote island caves of the Philippines to its transformation into the legendary Cantonese dish of Bird’s Nest Soup at a 3 Michelin star restaurant, this film examines this strange delicacy.
Director Alan Poon
Caviar Dreams: Caviar has long been synonymous with wealth, extravagance and overindulgence, but look a little closer and you’ll discover the less glamorous underbelly of overfishing and the struggle towards sustainability. Directors Brian Gersten, Liv Dubendorf & Wei Ying
The Rabbit Hunt: In a small town in Florida, since the beginning of the 20th century, a tradition carries on for young men on the cusp of manhood to capture fleeing rabbits from burning sugarcane fields. An initiation rite like you’ve never seen before. Director Patrick Bresnan
