Plot Summary for
What's Cooking? (2000)
Dir: Gurinder Chadha
In LA's Fairfax district, where ethnic groups abound, four households celebrate
Thanksgiving amidst family tensions. In the Nguyen family, the children's
acculturation and immigrant parents' fears collide. In the Avila family, Isabel's
son has invited her estranged husband to their family dinner. Audrey and Ron
Williams want to keep their own family's ruptures secret from Ron's visiting
mother. In the Seelig household, Herb and Ruth are unwilling to discuss openly
their grown daughter's living with her lover, Carla. Around each table, things come
to a head. A gun, an affair, a boyfriend, and a pregnancy precipitate crises
forcing each family to find its center.
