How to Cook Your Life

Chef extraordinaire and Zen master Edward Espe Brown whips up divine dishes and dishes divinely in this first-rate profile cooked up by writer-director Doris Dorrie. When not concocting fabulous meals, Brown serves up a heaping helping of philosophical food for thought about life and living. It's not all about Brown, however, there are also segments about a homeless woman who lives hand-to-mouth, a stop at a soup kitchen and a chew-the-fat sitdown with an organic farmer.
