Trattoria (2012)

Great family drama played against the cut throat world of the high end SF restaurant world. Director inter cuts interviews with actual SF chefs (a la Linklater w/Bernie) talking about the tension/joys of the biz. This doc conceit actually amplifes the fictional father-son dynamic which lifts the veil of the food service industry to show how the it can both unite and tear apart the personal lives of the chefs. Food shots are awesome and show the craft/time pressure involved with churning out high end food night after night. Afterwards you will want you to either go out to eat someplace special or cook something lavish at home ... think Eat Drink Man Woman or Big Night
