About the Film

“Breaking Bread”(NR, Israel/USA, 2019, 85 min.)

“Breaking Bread” is much more than a documentary. A treat for the senses, this film explores Israel’s groundbreaking A-Sham Festival, which puts Arab and Jewish chefs side by side to create mouthwatering dishes and foster social change. This delectable showcase of culinary heritage gives hope to the idea that collaboration in the kitchen could be a bridge to mutual understanding.
