Series
A sophisticated food critic, art lover and provocateur (his business card gives his name and says "nothing" underneath, thumbing his nose at professions and roles) has lived for decades with a woman who does everything for him, a sort of personal assistant, housekeeper and cook. One day she dies and he realises that he is incapable of doing anything for himself. Deciding to take in an untrained, naïve girl from Paraguay, he has to teach her from scratch about the countless aspects of his life (his relationships, personal tastes, culture, gastronomic preferences, etc.). This cultural and generational clash will lead to unusual, intense, contradictory and tender situations that will serve as a learning curve for both of them. TV mini-series with 5 episodes.

1885. Chef Eugénie has worked for the famous gourmet, Dodin, for the last 20 years. With the passing of time, their gastronomic endeavours and mutual admiration have flourished into a romantic relationship. Their association has led to unique dishes, capable of satisfying the most demanding palates, but Eugénie values her freedom and has never wanted to marry Dodin, prompting him to do something he has never done before: cook for her.

Medium-length film
In a hidden spot in the outskirts of Lima, in a poverty-stricken district, is a school that the whims of fate decided should exist: the Pachacútec Cookery School. For more than 15 years the school has changed the lives of more than 400 men and women chefs, giving them a profession that has lifted them out of their destitution while filling their lives with dreams, thus forging a new generation of Peruvian cooks. This documentary follows the case of three young alumi from the school, who now enjoy success in different parts of the world. In San Francisco, what started as work experience earned Jhosmery the position of pastry chef in a reputed Peruvian restaurant. In Luxembourg, Gerson takes up the reins of a kitchen with modernist ambitions. And in Lima, Alan runs a successful ceviche business. All saw gastronomy as a chance to get ahead.
