NAME OF FILM: NOTHING FANCY: DIANA KENNEDY
DIRECTOR(S): Elizabeth Carroll
STARRING: Gabriela Camara, Diana Kennedy, Alice Waters

SYNOPSIS: A total legend—the “Indiana Jones of food” as one chef puts it—her life’s devotion has been to preserve authentic Mexican cuisine, work that has garnered her awards, including an Order of the Aztec Eagle from Mexico. Now in her 90s, she continues to drive around, put together recipes, and rant against the gentrification of indigenous food (like how garlic-obsessed Americans keep shamefully putting it into their guac).
