Restaurant Noma in Copenhagen has recently been ranked number one by world-renowned chefs, food critics, and leading restaurant owners. Noma at Boiling Point delves into the restaurant's kitchen to reveal a harsh and relentless atmosphere. This fly-on-the-wall documentary follows the daily drama in the kitchen over six busy, turbulent months, where head chef Rene Redzepi pursues his unique vision and culinary talent with military precision while exploring the tastes and flavors of the Nordic Region. At Noma, International chefs and former prison inmates work side-by-side in the pursuit of world-class cooking. "It's like in the military, but this time it's not some jerk shouting at me," says Robert Petersen, a body-builder with a violent past. In spite of this contrast, Noma has climbed from number three to number one restaurant in the world, much because nothing less than perfect is accepted by Redzepi.
