SYNOPSIS

“Get my mother out of the dining room.” Perhaps a spoiler alert is in order for that essential line in this documentary about a 13-year-old wunderkind chef who served 14-course modernist meals in his camera-happy mother’s California home for devoted foodies. Soon, Flynn McGarry was cooking under some of the world’s most celebrated chefs, and the media took notice. As the film unspools and Flynn moves forward, we see the ups and downs of a prodigy under scrutiny.

Please be advised that the majority of the films programmed by the AVFS are independently produced and are, as yet, unrated. Viewers with sensitivity to sexual, violent, or crude themes are advised to investigate the content before attending.
