MOCO Chef José Andrés Documentary Will Stream On Disney+

BETHESDA, MD — Chef José Andrés is the subject of a documentary coming to Disney+ soon, highlighting his efforts as the leader of World Central Kitchen, which works to provide food and relief to people affected by disasters.

Andrés is also the owner of Spanish Diner in Bethesda, which opened last year.

"We Feed People" is scheduled to come out Memorial Day Weekend, Disney said on Twitter.

"The movie effectively begins in media res, with the robustly gregarious Andrés and his dedicated crew years into their vocation, providing hot meals to isolated residents of Wilmington, N.C., in the wake of 2018’s Hurricane Florence — and coming perilously close to tasting their own disaster when floodwaters almost topple their delivery truck — before backing up to explain just who Andrés is and what started him on his mission," writes Joe Leydon in his review of the film for Variety.

Andrés and his team have responded to disasters in Lousiana, Haiti and, most recently, Ukraine.
