‘Prestige Ingredients’

A sweet short film about recipes and tears starring Alia Shawkat and chef Pierre Jancou.

‘Prestige Ingredients’

When a waiting-for-work actress (played by Alia Shawkat) takes an avant-garde role in contributing a special ingredient to a recipe made by Parisian chef Pierre Jancou, the entirety of France’s gourmet kitchen is on display. From bakeries to roasted lamb to Burgundian wine, these characters enjoy good times in pursuit of great art.
