Film Synopsis
Created in the kitchen this film is a love letter to food, culture, queerness and creativity.
Crafting this immersive and intimate series of portraits, producers Matisse Laida and Nisha Hunter take us into the homes of Melbourne’s queer community who share their recipes for food and life. Speaking directly to their lived experiences, from their studios to their gardens, Hasib Hourani, Rio Withall, Erika Beiza, and Tarneen Onus Williams connect cooking, family and culture to their creative practice and identity, serving up heartfelt and joyful food-for-thought.
This film will be followed by a Q+A with cast and crew: Matisse Laida, Nisha Hunter, and Hasib Hourani. Stay for post-screening conversation with catering by Shop Bao Ngoc.
