Director Marcos Jorge directed one of the
most acclaimed short-features from Brazil:
purSuit (2002). His works have received more
than 50 festival awards. His video installations
were exhibited in Europe and Japan and he is
also responsible for directing the documentary
Luzia’s Atelier (2004)
The world is made of those who eat and
those who are eaten. Raimundo Nonato finds
an alternative way: he cooks. He cooks first
in a bar, then in an Italian Restaurant and
then in prison. He cooks and learns how to
get by in a society split between those who
eat and those who are eaten. What he learns,
are a series of rules he uses to his advantage:
in the end, the cook must also get his share
of food – and he knows better than most which
part tastes best. An adult fable on power,
sex and cooking.
