42 Grams

Jake Bickelhaupt works as a cook. He wants a kitchen of his own. But he has no capital. So he starts the work at home. He sets up a small dining arrangement in his flat. He calls it Sous Rising. He takes a limited number of guests and has no licence. The food starts being talked about quickly. Then they open a restaurant below. The new place is called 42 Grams. His wife Alexa runs the room. In its first year the restaurant takes two Michelin stars. Success comes fast but the pace is heavy. The camera films both the kitchen and the marriage. The restaurant closed in 2017. The eighty one minute documentary tells that rise and what it cost, an American production Jack C. Newell finished in 2017.
