Step Up to the Plate: A Master Chef Passes His Legacy to His Son

Full Price:
$14.00
Our Price:
$7.00

Symphony Space screens the New York Times Critics' Pick documentary, Step Up to the Plate. Even if you're not a hardcore foodie, you'll be fascinated by this look into the world of high-end cuisine. It's not just a peek behind the scenes at a 3-Michelin-Star restaurant, it's the story of a son preparing to take over his father's carefully built legacy. French chef Michel Bras is one of the most influential chefs in the world, and his son Sébastien has trained at his side for 15 years. He is ready to take the reins himself, but it's daunting to take over for someone who is one of the best in the world at what they do. Filmed in the gorgeous Aubrac region in the South of France, home to the Bras family for generations, Step Up To The Plate offers a rare glimpse into the culinary process at one of the world's top restaurants, while capturing one of the most closely-watched transitions in the world of haute cuisine.
