In his new documentary "Grandma's Hands," filmmaker Craig Sewell traces the power of food and heritage on a journey through southern Maryland.

Craig and Lucille Walker, from "Southern Maryland National Heritage," joined WJZ.

"I am a kitchen person and I think the kitchen is the heart of the home," Sewell said. "Things happen, gather there, people eat, people are nourished. That is the beginning of stories.
