“Gazpacho” is a short film which explores treasured childhood memories and associations with the filmmaker’s grandmother through the lens of her cooking. The film serves as both nostalgic reflection and as a memorial, ultimately reflecting on a grandmother’s continued legacy through the inherited tradition of the cooking of her signature dish as a symbol of love. The film utilizes a collage-style mixture of digital and richly-textured physical materials to convey a sense of personal authenticity and ultimately explores the universally-shared human experiences of food, nostalgia, and love through the exploration of the filmmaker’s own personal histories.
