Noma: My Perfect Storm review – slathered in coulis of cloying voiceover

René Redzepi plays with wilderness and interprets a forgotten edible world into a language we all understand. Noma, My Perfect Storm is a creative journey into the mind of René Redzepi.

His story has the feel of a classic fairy tale: the ugly duckling transformed into a majestic swan, who now reigns over the realm of modern gourmet cuisine. But beneath the polished surface, cracks appear in the form of old wounds. 2013 stands as the worst year in René Redzepi’s career. Noma: The Perfect Storm documentary follows Redzepi as he fights his way back to the top, reinventing NOMA and reclaiming the title of best restaurant in the world in 2014 for the fourth time.
