Coldwater Kitchen

For 30 years, soft-spoken chef Jimmy Lee Hill has run a highly regarded culinary training program out of a prison in Coldwater, Mich., offering incarcerated men a renewed sense of purpose through the craft of fine dining—everything from foie gras to lobster. “Coldwater Kitchen” follows Chef Hill and three of his students—one facing a life sentence, another battling an opioid addiction, and a third returning to the city where he once dealt drugs—as they navigate the woes of incarceration and the difficulties of transitioning back into society.
