The biographical drama “Tony” explores the culinary beginnings of renowned chef and author Anthony Bourdain. The story follows a nineteen-year-old Bourdain who, in the summer of 1975, enters the chaotic world of restaurants in Provincetown. He starts out as a dishwasher and soon falls under the influence of a strict mentor and his wild co-workers. This dynamic coming-of-age story is directed by Matt Johnson. Young Bourdain is played by Dominic Sessa, while Antonio Banderas portrays the head chef. The cast also features Emilia Jones and Leo Woodall. Backed by A24, the film has been selected for several prestigious autumn film festivals. Audiences are offered a raw and intimate glimpse into the hidden underbelly of culinary culture before its protagonist became a global phenomenon. Tickets can be purchased at the Art-kino box office, which opens every day one hour before the start of the first screening, or online via the CoreEvent platform.
