9/26/15 review of documentary Finding Gaston, dir. by Patricia Perez

Here is the link to my Twitter thread review of the documentary Finding Gaston, directed by Patricia Perez.

Finding Gaston is about the Peruvian chef Gaston Acurio, who, through his cuisine, has become a sort of national poet of Peru. The documentary shows how Acurio uses his cooking for purposes like philanthropy, local food sourcing, biodiversity, and supporting workers and local cultures.

Here is the trailer for Finding Gaston.


Also, I saw this film at the Denver Film Society's CineLatino festival, which is definitely worth checking out.
