Thoughts

A documentary about Chef André Chiang, who built one of the world's best restaurants and then chose to close it at its peak. The film follows his pursuit of perfection, the people around him, and what he decides to do when he finally steps away from it all. Worth watching if you've ever wondered what it costs to be great at something — and whether it's worth it.
