The Golden Spurtle

The Golden Spurtle

Since the Stone Age, few culinary traditions have stood the test of time as well as the nourishing bowl of porridge in the morning. This World Championship celebrates the oldest recipe in the world! The charismatic linchpin of the event is Charlie Miller. Despite his fragile health, he gives it one last everything to make the tournament a success and secure his legacy. The joy and pride of this small, close-knit community radiates from every scene. With a generous dose of Scottish self-deprecation, the Australian director and cameraman create a playful, nostalgic atmosphere, as if they have uncovered a hidden world in the heart of Scotland. A film that teaches you that getting your porridge right is harder than nuclear physics, and that you must always stir clockwise.
