Down the Hatch chronicles the story of Joe Connelly, an amateur professional eater looking to make a name for himself. Like any athlete, Connelly has had his share of great triumph and demoralizing failure. The film explores the prestigious world of competitive eating and what it takes for a seemingly normal kid to take the sport by storm.
