The Last Supper: The Life of the Deathrow Chef

2005 · 57 mins

Today, the ritual of giving the last supper to the condemned person has been detached from its origin, and can be perceived to be as absurd as the punishment it accompanies. Mats Bigert & Lars Bergström's film “The Last Supper” focuses on this discrepancy between historical “meaning” and contemporary use of a tradition that has lost its connection with the past. The main character is the former death row chef Brian Price, who reconstructs one of the 200 final meals that he prepared during his time as inmate in Huntsville State Prison, Texas.

Directors: Lars Bergström, Mats Bigert

Cast: Brian Price, Mimi Martin, Sakae Menda, Pra Kru Nanta, Bobby Olaguer
