La Danubio

2021, English. Directed by Ignacio Castillo Cottin.

The Kerese family own Danubio, the most famous pastry shop in Caracas. This documentary humanizes the inner workings of a family business by providing glimpses of the sweet, the sour and the salty. Led by Evelia, an unconventional woman ahead of her time, Danubio has sparked a deep sense of belonging amongst everyone who has ever made or tasted its Pan de Jamón, sometimes even at the expense of the family itself. The film provides a refreshing view of a landmark that continues to stand still as the country crumbles around it.
