Join our in-person film screening and discussion series at Night School Bar!.
Even though we can't smell or taste a film, food scenes have shaped some of the most visceral movie and TV storytelling, both in fiction and documentary. This course will explore a variety of media — from a classic feature film to ingenious television episodes and documentary — where food shows up in unexpected ways to move along emotional arcs, sociopolitical issues and the way we relate to ourselves and each other. We'll watch the movie Big Night, an excerpt or episode from The Bear, and documentary excerpts from Parts Unknown (Anthony Bourdain), High on the Hog, NYT Cooking's On the Job, and a short independent film by your professor! Through these movies and clips, we'll explore how food leads us to discussions on identity and culture, complex histories, labor, immigration and other themes.

Scholarships: We are currently able to offer three full scholarships per class. Our full scholarship tier is a nonrefundable offering, limited to one per student per month.Because our scholarship funding is limited, selecting multiple full scholarships in a single month will result in disenrollment from all classes. If the scholarship tier you need is sold out please email us directly, and we will add you to a waitlist and notify you if additional scholarships become available. Please see our FAQ for more information, including installment plans and refund policy.
