One of the most popular and talked-about screenings at last October's Planet In Focus film festival was "The Islands Project", a unique, quirky and charming film about the unique, quirky and charming Chef Michael Stadtlander. Documenting the cross-country trip he took with his family and a group of apprentices in the Summer of 2006, the film is extremely entertaining, not to mention hunger-inducing.
For those who missed the festival screening, PIF is bringing it back tonight at the Gardiner Museum as part of their monthly Mixed Greens series. It's a PWYC event with no reserved seating, so an early arrival is recommended.
(And on a somewhat related note, Taste T.O. is proud to be a media sponsor for the 2008 edition of the Planet In Focus festival, taking place October 22th to 26th, so watch this space for news about the festival as the dates draw closer.)
