A Raw Portrait of Nick Bril at a Turning Point in Life and Career
RAUW is a candid documentary series that follows star chef Nick Bril during what was meant to be the most ambitious and celebratory period of his career: turning 40 and building a new dream restaurant.
What initially started as a story about ambition and culinary excellence takes an unexpected and dramatic turn when a serious accident occurs during filming. The event profoundly impacts both Bril and those around him, shifting the documentary into a deeply personal and raw exploration of guilt, resilience, and reinvention.
The series offers an intimate look behind the scenes of Bril’s life — from his work in the kitchen of The Jane to his roles as an entrepreneur, partner, and father. It also revisits his turbulent youth, career highs and lows, his journey back to Michelin success, and the lasting consequences of the accident.
Unfiltered and emotional, RAUW paints a nuanced portrait of a chef forced to pause, reflect, and redefine both his career and his life, while looking ahead to the future.
