Details
This film tells the story of five brutal regimes, from Iraq to North Korea, through the eyes of the personal chefs who served them.
Through recipes, rituals and remembrance, a portrait emerges of power, manipulation and the quiet ways ordinary people become entangled in extraordinary violence. Loyalty, denial, fear, even thrill, each chef carries their experience differently, yet together they reveal how dictatorship gets under the skin of everyone it touches.
How to Feed a Dictator is darkly funny, deeply human and impossible to shake, proof that the most revealing place to understand a regime is not the war room but the kitchen.
Followed by a Q&A with director Andrew Neel.
This screening will be Open Captioned and a British Sign Language interpreter will be visible on stage throughout the Q&A
In this joint curation between Bertha DocHouse and Sheffield DocFest, audiences are invited to discover the gems, highlights and new voices in non-fiction cinema which premiered in the past festival edition.
