The Way to the Heart
Directed by Wendy Ord
Produced by Anamorphic Media, Trilight Entertainment
A warm, character-driven comedy-drama about rediscovering passion and connection through homecoming and culinary rededication.
Ava, an award-winning chef at a big-city restaurant, has lost her spark. Her boss sends her out to find herself to save her menu and her job. She returns home and finds little to inspire her, but when she reunites with her childhood friend Logan, Ava has to get her head out of the clouds and her foot out of her mouth to rediscover her passion for food.
