He and his political comrades take refuge in the village of Cadaqués, also home to internationally renowned surrealist artist Salvador Dalí (Gal Soler). As a cover, Fernando takes on the role of head chef for ‘El Surreal’ - a restaurant dedicated to the art of Dalí - owned by an obsessive fan who wants nothing more than for Dalí to dine there. Soon, the paths of the chef and the artist will cross and cause the birth of a new culinary genius.

Inspired by the origin story of the restaurant El Bulli, director David Pujol has created a delightful, sunny comedy that correlates the passion for food (depicted here in mouth-watering detail) and the drive to create a lasting legacy be it through, art, food or social justice. "It sweetens the audience's eyes, makes people fall in love with a passion for cooking, and connects us with the love for ideas." – Cronica.

We are delighted to partner with Chichester’s prime tapas restaurant – El Matador (previously Viento de Levante) – for a very special Film, Flamenco & Food event where you can see last year’s Festival Surprise Film ‘A Chef for Dali’ and enjoy a tapas banquet accompanied by some live Flamenco at the atmospheric restaurant.
