About this Documentary: Freemasonry is the world's oldest and largest fraternity for Men, organized in 1717. Historically, dining and Freemasonry have been inseparable, and the Masonic banquet was an essential part of any assemblage of brothers. This documentary demonstrates the pleasing elegance of fraternal bonding, as brothers near and far gather together outside of the Masonic lodge for a memorable dining event.
