Breaking Bread

by Beth Elise Hawk, documentary 83 min. Israel 2019.

Dr. Nof Atamna-Ismaeel - the first Muslim Arab to win Israel’s MasterChef - is on a quest to make social change through food. And so, she founded the A-Sham Arabic Food Festival, where pairs of Arab and Jewish chefs collaborate on dishes like kishek (a Syrian yogurt soup), and qatayef (a dessert typically eaten during Ramadan).                                                                    `

​A film about hope, synergy and exotic fare, Breaking Bread illustrates what happens when people focus on the person, rather than her religion. on the public, rather than the politicians.
