With seven Michelin stars to his name, Heston Blumenthal is one the world’s greatest chefs. Yet in 2023, Heston started experiencing hallucinations and suicidal thoughts – his behaviour so extreme that his wife Melanie decided to have him sectioned. Diagnosed with bipolar disorder, Heston started taking medication that would sap his energy, extinguish his creativity but, crucially, keep him alive. This film follows Heston as he rebuilds his life, tries to understand the role bipolar disorder played in his success and the impact it had on the people he loves. He also explores the woeful state of bipolar care in the UK. With exclusive access to Heston, those closest to him and a wealth of archive, this is a personal and emotional exploration of a serious mental health condition.
