I Like Killing Flies

Documentarian and longtime customer Matt Mahurin follows chef and proprietor Kenny Shopsin and his family as they face the gentrification of New York's Greenwich Village that threatens the continued existence of Shopsin's General Store. I Like Killing Flies captures Kenny as he not only conjures comfort food on his Frankenstein stove from a menu containing hundreds of dishes, but as he serves up morsels of wit and wisdom on work, family, politics, sex, and even cooking. Mahurin believed Kenny's brilliance transcended the four walls of his corner eatery and needed to be shared with those who would never have the chance to partake of Kenny's food for the belly and the soul.
