The Food of the French Revolution
This documentary explores the food of the French Revolution, showing how the upheaval of 1789 reshaped what and how the French ate. As absolute monarchy gave way and the bourgeoisie rose, old hierarchies of the table were overturned along with the political order. The film links cuisine to class, power, and the birth of the modern restaurant. Rich and unexpected, it serves up history through the lens of the plate. Free to watch in HD on Dr Documentary.
