Coldwater Kitchen at Tibbits Opera House

For 30 years, soft-spoken chef Jimmy Lee Hill has run a highly regarded culinary training program out of a prison in Coldwater, Mich., offering incarcerated men a renewed sense of purpose through the craft of fine dining – everything from foie gras to lobster. The film follows Hill and three of his students as they struggle to adapt to different stages of incarceration, re-entry and redemption using food as a catalyst for positive change.

Following the film there will be a Q & A session, then a reception highlighting the culinary skills of the Branch Area Career Center students in the Culinary Arts and Hospitality Management program, as well as Chef Hill’s own students.
