Join us for a special screening of Shelf Life, a documentary that takes viewers on a surprising global odyssey through the world of cheese. Through playful vignettes and expert reflections, the film explores how the aging process of cheese mirrors the journey of human life—filled with transformation, challenges, and wisdom.
Following the screening, Robyn Metcalfe, the executive producer, will engage the audience in a live Q&A session, diving deeper into the themes of the film and its philosophical reflections on aging, flavor, and the passage of time.
