City Hall Arts Center
This 1988 lip-smacking foray into the history, consumption, cultivation and culinary/curative powers of the “stinking rose” features chef Alice Waters of Chez Panisse and a flavorful musical soundtrack. The San Francisco Chronicle called this lively film “a joyous, nose-tweaking, ear-tingling, mouth-watering tribute to a Life Force.” The lovingly photographed documentary is an odyssey of garlic feasts alternating with unique interviews with garlic aficionados. Shown with Les Blank’s YUM! YUM! YUM!, a short guide to Cajun cuisine. Total program, 80 minutes. Sponsored by Vermont Compost Company. Community Partner: Food Works. Post-film event: Director Les Blank will discuss the films. More on Les Blank
