The Chicken, the Fish and the King Crab

The first "gourmet thriller", as the creators themselves call their documentary film, follows an ambitious chef and Michelin-star-winner, Jesús, during the Bocuse d'Or competition – the international cooking Olympic Games where 24 international teams prepare, cook and present the most interesting and delicious meals, cheered by salivating fans. Jesús' journey to success leads all the way to the Nordic fjords for fish whose happiness influences the taste, to the drama of strategic menu planning and precision in every detail, and to the aesthetically entrancing compositions of the final meals which bring them close to a work of art.
