When you reach the top of your game, what goal can you still set for yourself? This is a relevant issue that great champions such as Roger Federer and Usain Bolt have faced. The documentary Noma places us in the daily life of the best restaurant in the world that will do everything to renew itself.
At the time of blockbusters and other popular comedies, documentaries are not the most popular in cinemas. And yet, it's a genre you should look into. Maurice Dekkers gives us with Noma, his first feature film. However, he is not a novice in this universe since he ran a very popular Dutch show.
There is a very interesting anecdote about Noma's history about the fact that the team would have total freedom. There was no writing prior to filming. It is assumed that this will have accentuated the realism of this great adventure.
The film will be in theaters on April 26, 2017. It was in the selection of the Berlin Film Festival.
Synopsis:
