LA COCINA
Special Features: Opening Night | Q&A with filmmaker Alonso Ruizpalacios, plus post-screening reception sponsored by the Mexican Cultural Institute in DC.
Mexican auteur Alonso Ruizpalacios (A COP MOVIE, GÜEROS, MUSEO) brings new meaning to kitchen-sink realism with his adaptation of British playwright Arnold Wesker's "The Kitchen," transferring the action from mid-century London to present-day New York City to craft a tragicomic tribute to life behind the scenes of a busy Times Square restaurant.
