Human Recipe
Animated and Directed by Michelle De Groot
Music by Steven Stoffels
“Human Recipe” is an experimental animated short that delves into the intricate relationship between humans, animals, and food. Unlike other animals, humans have transformed food into more than sustenance—we’ve built rituals, crafted recipes, and made it a powerful expression of identity and culture. Led by music composed by Steven Stoffels, the film explores the unique ways humans interact with food, highlighting the stark contrast between our culinary traditions and the instinctual habits of the animal kingdom.
