Overview

In his debut feature documentary, Aziz Zoromba follows acclaimed chef Fadi Kattan and Canadian co-venturer Nicole Mankinen as they race to open a Palestinian restaurant in Toronto. While their dream takes shape, escalating attacks devastate Gaza and the West Bank. Part immersive food film and part urgent record, LOUF is a powerful meditation on diaspora, resistance, and the politics of preservation.

How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A documentary that interweaves the intimate labor of building something beautiful with the weight of political catastrophe unfolding in real time. It's a film about cooking as resistance and memory, anchored by the complicated hope of two people trying to keep a culture alive in exile.
