Discover how the iconic Anthony Bourdain came to be in Matt Johnson’s scrappy coming-of-age comedy that's equal parts sweet and sour. 

Long before he became the world’s favorite culinary storyteller, Anthony Bourdain was just a dishwashing kid getting baptized in the grease, sweat, and chaos of a 1970s coastal seafood shack. This electric origin story follows a young Tony (Dominic Sessa) as he gets thrown into the fire of a cutthroat kitchen brigade. Surrounded by foul-mouthed line cooks, late-night vices, and non-stop pressure, a reckless teenager stumbles into the raw grit and rock-and-roll pulse that defined his entire legacy.

In English with English subtitles.
