Jacques Pépin, a young immigrant with movie-star looks and a charming Gallic accent, elevated essential kitchen techniques to an art form to become one of America’s most beloved food icons. Filmmaker Peter L. Stein first started working with Pépin in 1989 as producer of his landmark television series Today’s Gourmet.
The film traces Pépin’s journey from his childhood in the countryside of wartime France until today when, at age 81, he continues to crisscross the country teaching and cooking, enjoying the celebrity generated by 14 television shows and nearly 30 cookbooks.
Filmography: The Castro (1997).
The screening will be followed by a discussion and a tasting event
