About the film

Long before becoming a celebrated chef, writer, and travel journalist, Anthony Bourdain was a 19-year-old trying to figure out what he wanted from life. Dreaming of becoming a writer but unsure where his path would lead, he takes a summer job at a restaurant in the picturesque Provincetown. What begins as a temporary job soon becomes a defining chapter in his young life. Surrounded by the intensity of a professional kitchen, complicated relationships, new friendships, romance, and hard lessons about adulthood, Tony discovers a world driven by food, ambition, passion, and freedom. Over the course of one transformative summer, the young man searching for his place in the world begins to find his own voice — and takes the first steps toward the extraordinary life that awaits him.

Editorial review

The story of a young Anthony Bourdain, long before he became a household name. At 19, he still has no idea what he wants to do with his life, but a chance job in a restaurant kitchen gradually changes his outlook and sets him on the path toward his future career.
