Description

Barbecue is a grand vision of humanity unified by our most common and primal tradition. Captured in cinematic 4K, filmed across twelve countries, and accompanied by a rich orchestral score - stories of race, class and belonging are told around the fire by families, cooks and backyard philosophers. In South Africa barbecue roasts over coals as people in the townships and suburbs find new ways to live together post-apartheid. In Texas, pitmasters feed the masses fuelled by pride in their craft and community. Across the border a Mexican family works through the night, surviving by sheer determination. Armenians defiantly cling to their traditions and homeland, while exiled Syrians find new hope through shawarma stalls in a border refugee camp. Despite strikingly different landscapes and cultures, these intimate portraits of everyday life reveal a bold vision of humanity, as each country searches for its own answer to the question – how do we live in the world today?
