A Foodie's Guide to #CIFF42

Cleveland is a foodie town. And the Cleveland International Film Festival has some delicious films to fill up on. Check out these tasty flicks:

Ramen Heads is a slurpalicious film about Japan’s best ramen and will introduce you to some of the interesting characters who have mastered it.

Chef Flynn is the story about Flynn McGarry a prodigy in the kitchen. This documentary tells of his extraordinary skills and the challenges that come with being a star chef in your teens.

The Bake Shop Ghost is part of the Hollywood and Family Shorts 1 programs. The Shorts programs are always one of my favorites! Think of them as the tapas of the film world. This little film is an enchanting story of a baker's battle to unlock the secrets of the perfect recipe and a lonely heart.

Brewmaster is your chance to meet some of the men and women creating one of our favorite beverages. It documents home brewers, big corporations and and behind-the-scenes. You'll also learn about Master Cicerones, the sommeliers of the beer world.

Halal for Beginners Based on true events, this film is a comedy celebrating modern Ireland’s growing multiculturalism. A young Muslim lives with his wacky aunt and uncle. When his Dad visits from India, he talks him into running Ireland’s first Halal meat factory. This opportunity will change everything.
