Title: Soillse: Ayen’s Cooking School
What happens when a Sudanese woman in Australia starts a cooking school for the refugee men and asks them to prepare a feast for their biggest critics - the elders' women?

The women of Sudan do not allow their men into the kitchen because, amongst other reasons, they believe their penises might burn over the cooking fires. But when a group of refugee Sudanese men in Adelaide, Australia, are found starving because they don't know what to do with a fridge full of groceries, something has to change. Ayen Kuol, a Sudanese health worker decides to challenge a million years of custom and culture and start a cooking school for African men.

The generations battle it out for their right to be in the kitchen and Ayen eventually throws down the gauntlet. The boys should cook a feast for the elder women.
