A documentary film by Aziz Zoromba

LOUF, directed by Aziz Zoromba, follows Palestinian chef Fadi Kattan and his Canadian business partner, Nicole Mankinen as they set out to open a Palestinian restaurant in Toronto.

​

As the restaurant takes shape, the unfolding violence in Palestine casts a shadow over their lives and work. Through intimate moments in the kitchen and beyond, the documentary explores food, identity, displacement and the search for belonging.

​

Produced by the National Film Board of Canada, LOUF is a portrait of the people and stories behind it.
