Pizza wasn't invented in New Haven. It was perfected there.
There are only three pizza places in the world that matter... Most everyone has a passion for pizza, but only New Haven lays claim to the HoIy Trinity of pizza joints with Sally's, Pepe's, and Modern. They are not onIy a cornerstone of New Haven's ltalian-American heritage but also the estabIishments that set the bar for this immediately recognizabIe comfort food. NationaI poIIs agree: these are the pizzas by which all others are measured. Filmmaker Gorman Bechard teIls the story of the evolution of this modern day food stapIe, the only pizza that can reaIIy be caIIed ''apizza.''
From the landing of ltalian immigrants on our shores, to the rusted wheels of Frank Pepe's bread cart, to the black charcoaI on your very own fingertips, take a journey from old world ItaIy into present day New Haven. Pizza, A Love Story is not just a tale of three restaurants but of three families that have the power to polarize, captivate, and delight. As we say, pizza wasn't invented in New Haven, it was perfected there. Just wait 'til you get a taste...
