He pops up often in your social media livestream, appearing from just about every corner of the globe. His head bobbing up-and-down in the frame, his voice slightly frantic, he reports in real-time from the frontlines of whatever new catastrophe has left thousands – or even millions — of people in desperate need of food and to describe what's being done about it. He's world-renowned Chef José Andrés and his organization, World Central Kitchen (WCK), has become legendary for its quick response in the aftermath of fires, earthquakes, hurricanes, Covid, and, most recently, the war in Ukraine. As José says in the urgent, riveting new Ron Howard (Rebuilding Paradise, Thirteen Lives) documentary “We Feed People”, “We not only feed people. We create systems.” Ken recently spoke with the film's producer Sara Bernstein (Leave No Trace, Downfall: The Case Against Boeing) about this exhilarating Emmy®-nominated documentary and the challenge of making a film during the pandemic. How did the film's director Ron Howard encounter WCK's work first-hand and why did he keep coming back to the idea of making a film about them? Why did the film's focus shift from a verité style production to a portrait of WCK's evolution from a small band of do-gooders into the powerhouse food relief organization that it is today? And how did the film team's commitment to presenting a three-dimensional, warts-and-all portrait of José result in a more nuanced and, ultimately, more emotionally resonant and fully realized film? Join us for this Tapas-inspired dish of valuable lessons learned about food relief efforts and delicious behind-the-scenes filmmaking stories.

In which the Monsters (the Mister had a work deadline) join me in reviewing WE FEED PEOPLE (2022). The film, directed by Ron Howard, is currently streaming on Disney+. The documentary chronicles chef José Andrés, who decided during the 2010 Haiti earthquake, that he could not stand idly by as a spectator. He decided to cut short a family vacation and go to Haiti and see how he could help. Being a world renowned chef, he got to thinking that in times of disaster, he could offer comfort through a love language - food. What began as a casual need to help his fellow humans soon morphed into a calling and the non profit, World Central Kitchen came into existence. Years later, José Andrés among others, have helped feed thousands of people through natural disasters and wars. The film speaks to the chef, his family, friends and colleagues and covers not only his philanthropy but also delves a bit into his past. The film has a run time of 1 h 29 m, and is not rated.
