A Dreamer's Search: Click Here For Trailer
In 1918, Rockwell Kent leaves New York City with his eight-year-old son and travels to the rugged wilderness of Alaska in search of inspiration. Kent settles on a remote island, isolated and free to do his work. He befriends an old prospector whose stories energize his pursuit. As he struggles with internal turmoil, his son’s innocence and willingness to face failure inspire Kent to dig deep inside himself and begin again. Father and son’s connection blossoms as they embrace the wilderness experience together. Surrounded by the quiet magnificence of Fox Island, Kent creates the drawings and paintings that will catapult his career to national success and turn his dream into reality.

Starring Diane Ciesla (Sundance Film Festival Finalist for The Foxy Merkins, 5 Flights Up, Another Earth), Vince Edgehill (Power Book III: Raising Kanan) and introducing Josue Ledesma, The Cookbook tells the story of Sarikh Kalil, a third-generation Lebanese immigrant who reunites with his estranged parents in Central New York after his father suffers a debilitating stroke. Sarikh is faced with a choice: take over his father’s Lebanese restaurant and preserve his familial heritage, or sell out to pursue his American Dream. The Cookbook is a heartfelt story about the sacrifices we make for family, preserving culture in melting-pot America and father-son relationships. The Cookbook is set and produced in Syracuse, and it was funded by a CNY grant.
