Ricard Camarena bases his cooking in València’s orchard. His constant search of harmony between flavours has seduced critics and crossed borders. Alongside MariCarmen Bañuls, the brains running the restaurants, they make an unbreakable team that has overcome great adversity to reach success, endorsed by two Michelin Stars and therecent National Gastronomy Prize. The couple lives their most balanced moment. Balanced? The outbreak of COVID-19 makes them face an unprecedented challenge: re-open their restaurants with the uncertainty that the “new normality” imposes. Unaware ofthe pandemic, València’s orchard has continued its natural cycle of growth.

DIRECTOR BIOGRAPHY

Screenwriter and director. I wrote my first story when I was six years old; "With a washing machine alespacio". I didn't get a publisher, but my aunts liked it a lot. Some time later I began to make shorts: "Laura's shoes", "Breakfast with a diadem", "Bikini" and "Apolo81" have been seen in hundreds of festivals and many televisions around the world. Between the four they add more than 160 awards, the candidacy for the Goya and the nomination for the Meliés d'Or. Soon I will release Stanbrook, my new short film. I have written feature films and directed the fiction series “La Forastera” and three seasons of the documentary series “Cuineres i cuiners” with Ricard Camarena, two Michelin star chef. The Recipe for Balance is the documentary that culminates three years of work with this internationally renowned Valencian chef.
