Long before celebrity chefs and reality TV competitions, there was Julia Child, the legendary cookbook author and television sensation who changed the way we think about food. Using Child’s own words and never-before-seen archives, Oscar-nominated directors Julie Cohen and Betsy West (RBG) trace her surprising path, from her struggles to publish the revolutionary Mastering the Art of French Cooking, to her empowering story as a woman who found unlikely television fame in her 50s. Mouth-watering images of Julia’s iconic recipes, and interviews with Jacques Pépin, Ina Garten, and Marcus Samuelsson illuminate her humour, joie de vivre, and enduring influence on home cooks everywhere.
