Jedes Aroma ist eine Reise

“Each Flavour is a Journey” is a documentary about Jewish food in Berlin produced by Funk Productions (funkproductions.tv) and directed by Daniela Rusowsky, with the support of Zurückgeben, a fund to support creative projects by Jewish women in Germany (stiftung-zurueckgeben.de).

Filmed in Berlin, this 60-minute documentary provides an insight into Jewish life in the city. Through the preparation of food, it will show the relations that each cook establishes within a particular meal by giving it a religious, symbolic or emotional meaning that goes far beyond its taste or appearance -transforming each flavor into a wonderful journey.

The film is an official project of the Berlin Themenjahr 2013 (Berlin Theme year 2013), dedicated to remember the human, cultural and religious diversity destroyed by the Nazis. Hitler took power in 1933; this theme year takes placeon the 80th anniversary of this fateful event, which led to the holocaust and unrivalled tragedy and misery.
