Dir.
Beth Elise Hawk
(US, 2021, 85 min)

In
Breaking Bread,
exotic cuisine and a side of politics are on the menu. Dr. Nof
Atamna-Ismaeel—the first Muslim Arab to win Israel's MasterChef—is on a
quest to make a social change through food. She founded the A-sham
Arabic Food Festival in Haifa. There, pairs of Arab and Jewish chefs
collaborate on mouthwatering dishes as they savor the taste of
hope and discover the food of their region, free from political and
religious boundaries.

Q+A with director
