Starring Academy Award Nominee Rooney Mara and Raúl Briones

Based on the classic play 'The Kitchen' by Arnold Wesker

Directed by Alonso Ruizpalacios

Amidst the lunch rush of a frantic Manhattan restaurant, a series of events threaten to bring the kitchen to a crashing halt.

While food orders flood in and pressure mounts to boiling point, the passionate relationship between chef Pedro (Raúl Briones) and waitress Julia (Academy Award nominee Rooney Mara) is starting to fray. But when missing money and shocking revelations cause things to spiral out of control, it's not long before one of New York's busiest kitchens is on the verge of imploding.

Featuring an array of outstanding performances led by Briones and Mara, La Cocina is a gripping, exhilarating and truly cinematic new film from acclaimed director Alonso Ruizpalacios.
