As part of this year's sponsorship, Mountain Valley Spring Water and HSDFF will host a collaboration with the filmmakers of THE HEAT: A Kitchen (R)evolution and Chef Edward Lee's Let's Empower Employment (LEE) Initiative. THE HEAT is a documentary that showcases the challenges facing female chefs in today's male dominated kitchens. The LEE Initiative is an organization focused on bringing more equality and diversity to the restaurant industry. The collaboration will include a joint Q&A with Chef Anita Lo and Chef Edward Lee after THE HEAT's screening on 10/21 at 7:30PM at the Arlington Hotel and will be followed by an evening fundraiser with silent auction and food prepared by the LEE Initiative's 2018 mentees at Superior Bathhouse. The auction can be accessed online via https://lee.cbo.io/ and will be open from 10/15 the end of the film festival on 10/28.
"We are always proud to be fully engaged with the Hot Springs community, and very excited again be the presenting sponsor for the Hot Springs Documentary Film Festival. The HSDFF has a long history, and has truly become a hallmark festival in the last several years. We strongly believe in their goal of highlighting the art of documentary film making, and ultimately bringing cultural and social enrichment to our community", said Stephan Williams, Director of Marketing. He added, "this year we are thrilled to have the unique opportunity of bringing together the film "THE HEAT" and our partners at the LEE Initiative. As a scholarship donor, we are proud to bring more visibility to the careers of strong, talented women in the culinary industry."
