In the Detroit Free Press documentary, “Coldwater Kitchen,” Chef Jimmy Lee Hill has run a highly regarded culinary program out of prison for 30+ years. It follows Hill and 3 students as they navigate incarceration and re-entry using food as a catalyst for change. 4/ bit.ly/3ZiiHln

I’m still in complete shock that COLDWATER KITCHEN, the little film I co-directed, premieres tonight in Detroit as a James Beard Foundation nominee!! Immense thanks to the judges and anyone who’s supported this project along the way. 🙏❤️ See you tonight! Tix: goelevent.com/Freep/e/Coldwa…


I got to interview Detroit’s own Mark Kurlyandchik for this one! More big James Beard Foundation awards news from the Motor City, y’all!

Congratulations to the Freep Film Festival for an amazing opening night with the Michigan premiere of Coldwater Kitchen, a fascinating documentary on the criminal justice system, rehabilitation & the power of food. Check out the entire #freepfilmfest lineup: freepfilmfestival.com


I can’t believe this is real, but my film baby Coldwater Kitchen won a James Beard Foundation award last night in the Documentary category. Hoping this means you all may finally get to see it soon. #jbfa
