About the film:
Join us for a wonderful journey in the art of cooking, with Diana Kennedy in the driver's seat.
Author and food writer Diana Kennedy died this summer at 99 years old, and despite her British origin, many will argue that she passed away as a Mexican at heart. She moved to Mexico in the 1960s where she eagerly began her life-long project exploring the Mexican food culture. In 1981 she received the prestigious award The Mexican Order of the Aztec Eagle. When we meet her in the documentary, she is 97 years old, and has published no less than 17 cookbooks on the subject. We join her on a fabulous journey into a world where her love for the food culture trumps anything else in life.
