Chef, Commanders fan, television personality … David Chang is many things. He is also a passionate fly angler and the focus of a new film coming to the International Fly Fishing Film Festival.
From the IF4:
“Most fishing films show the highlights.
The perfect cast. The perfect fish. The perfect moment.
Let’s Make a Fishing Movie does the opposite.
This film pulls back the curtain on the process of making a fishing film—following a high-stakes shoot with chef, author, and cultural icon David Chang as everything that can go wrong… does. What unfolds is an honest, funny, and sometimes uncomfortable look at creativity, expectation, and the messy reality behind the stories we love to watch.
Set on the remote coastline of the Yucatán Peninsula in Mexico, and filmed by Off the Grid Studios, the film explores what happens when control disappears and collaboration takes over. It’s a story about fishing, filmmaking, and the thin line between intention and outcome. Learn more about this movie here: https://offthegridstudios.com/pages/o…
