Winner of four Cesar awards, incIuding best picture and director, AbdelIatif Kechiche's The Secret Of The Grain is a stirring drama about the daily joys and struggles of a bustIing French-Arab family. It has the texture of a documentary but a classic, almost Shakespearean structure: when patriarch SIimane acts on his wish to open a port-side restaurant speciaIizing in his ex-wife's fish couscous, the extended clan's passions and probIems expIode in riveting drama, leading to an engrossing, suspensefuI climax. With
sensitivity and grit, The Secret Of The Grain ceIebrates the roIe food plays in family life and gets to the core of contemporary immigrant experience. |
