Today in my English Composition class, we watched Chef's Table: Francis Mallmann. Here I will be answering a few questions to relate this episode to the class.
Question #1: How does this episode fit into the narrative mode? This episode begins by showing a scene. Then the scene is described. This is an example of showing and telling. I believe this episode had just the right amount of showing and telling. This episode tells a story in a way that helps the viewers understand what is trying to be said. Not only do the viewers see what is going on, but they are also told what is happening. A narrative is defined on google as a spoken or written account of connected events; a story. That's exactly what this is, a story told through film and language. Question #2: How does Mallmann's story connect to the hiraeth story you are writing in this class? Consider his discussions about home and childhood. Mallmann's story connects to my hiraeth in many ways. He talks about his own hiraeth. He describes it as "the feeling of Patagonia I feel, is my deepest rooted feeling for home". In fact, the episode begins with Mallmann describing a scene from his childhood in Patagonia, Argentina. One of the main themes is freedom, which directly relates to my hiraeth. He talks a lot about his memories as a child and it seems as though his culture is very important to him. It's almost like he's trying to hold on to his home that he cannot return to. Question #3: What major ideas/themes from this episode connect to ideas/themes from our composition course? Consider Mallmann's argument about composing a good dish, examining his life environments, and being productive. The way that Mallmann cooks reminds me a lot of the way we are being taught to write in this class. Mallmann says, "My message is get out of your chair, of your sofa, of your office and go out." He puts effort and passion into his cooking, just like we do with our writing. Another example would be when he was criticized by the head of Cartier who was eating at his restaurant, and he used it the way we use feedback, to reflect and grow. He also likes to keep his mind free from distractions by traveling and getting a change of view, so he can be more inspired.

Thanks for this well-organized post. I appreciate the connections you make to the class: passion, growth, importance of feedback. I noticed you also made a connection in terms of the episode's theme of freedom and your hiraeth's theme of freedom. I wonder how you could further explore that idea in this post?
