Once a year, contenders from around the globe descend on a picturesque village in the Scottish Highlands to compete for the title of World Porridge Champion. Amid intense rivalries, steaming bowls of porridge, and the lives of charming locals we see a living legacy unfold.
Dating back to neolithic times, few culinary traditions have survived as long as the hearty bowl of morning porridge. Each year the sleepy highland village of Carrbridge awakens with excitement as locals and competitors from around the globe vie for the honour of winning The Golden Spurtle in the World Porridge Making Championships. This deftly constructed crowd-pleaser is a film to nourish the soul. Its considerable charm and humour come from an appetising combination of lovably eccentric characters, a sharp-eyed camera, a playful, bustling score and the glorious Scottish countryside.
