Michelin Guide Managing Director attends the long awaited documentary alongside grand chefs, famous actors, food notabilities and global movie elite.

This Saturday “Michelin Stars – Tales From The Kitchen” features as the prestigious opening film of the Culinary Zinema: Film and Gastronomy Section at the 65th edition of the San Sebastián International Film Festival.
The production is a grand documentary, filmed over a two-year period and follows the lives, views and everyday of a long and diverse range of star chefs, global diners, food writers and Michelin management across the world. From New York City to Copenhagen, from San Sebastián to Tokyo.
At a moment in time, when humanity is obsessed with food – photographing every dish, worshipping cooks and flaunting trophy meals on social media, the documentary goes under the surface and offers an in-depth, honest and relevant view into the world and every day of Michelin chefs and restaurants
This by telling tales from a grand menu of culinary temples as well as digging into the greatness and flaws of Guide Michelin in this golden age of gastronomy.
Daniel Humm, New York City – Guy Savoy, Paris – Yoshimi Tanigawa, Kyoto. Three continents, three-starred Michelin excellence.

The otherwise very undercover French restaurant guide has on several occasions played ball with the in-depth film production, in order to give a greater understanding of the criteria involved in obtaining the highly coveted Michelin stars, which in some cases mean either life or death to ambitious restaurants.
