A new documentary focuses on José Andrés’s emergency food relief organization and his canny understanding of the power levers in Washington.

He was supposed to get into New York the night before, “but I didn’t,” he says. “Because I hosted — for two hours that became five hours — 13 senators in my restaurant.

Andrés has proved Moynihan right over the past 30 years, as he has become an increasingly vital part of the American culinary landscape. Born in Spain, he came to Washington after a brief stint in New York. Since opening Jaleo, he has introduced severaleateries throughout the D.C. area, as well as in Chicago and Los Angeles. In April, his signature paella fed the crew of the first private mission of the International Space Station.

Howard has been listening intently as Andrés speaks. He first got the idea for “We Feed People” when he was filminghis 2020 documentary about the California community that was devastated by wildfires in 2018. There’s a brief shot of Andrés serving food in the film that, he says, “coalesced my thinking” that it was time to do a documentary about him.
