You can watch Burning Man (2011) for free on Kanopy.

Tom is a British chef in a Bondi restaurant who seems to have decided there are no longer any rules he needs to obey. Whatever Tom is up to, his actions seem to be tolerated by those around him. As Tom descends into darkness, fragments of a different story begin to emerge. All the women in his world are trying in their own, very different ways to help put him back together.

Can a man's sudden rejection of social boundaries ignite a spark of freedom or merely trigger a total collapse of his soul? This slow-burn character study tracks a chef's reckless abandonment of restraint as his personal world begins to fracture.
