Lluc Crusellas faces the greatest challenge of his career: achieving the prestigious title of World Chocolate Master and thus entering the "Olympus" of the world's greatest pastry chefs. In his pursuit of excellence, he embarks on intense physical and mental preparation for the competition, surrounding himself with a great multidisciplinary team. During this process, he not only perfects his artistic and creative skills but also cultivates a resilient and focused mindset, ready to face the rigors of the competition. Along the way, he leaves his younger self behind to mature as a person and as a professional. His strength and character will support him and those around him along the way; in the most delicate moments, he will allow those closest to him to care for him. At the same time, the great masters closely monitor his preparation, analyzing both his skills to access "their exclusive kingdom" and the current state and trends in the pastry world. Thus, while Lluc's figure becomes a central and focal point for understanding the current and future panorama of haute patisserie, the images generated during the preparation for the competition narrate his experience from the most emotional and vibrant side.
