This film, made in Germany, tells the story of Martha (Martina Gedeci), a brilliant chef who relates better to food than to people. She is so obsessed with food that it's all she talks about with her therapist. But when her sister is killed in a car accident, she must take care of her 8 year old niece, Lina (Maxime Foerste). Their struggle to adjust to each other, to come to terms with their grief, and to learn to make a new life together is funny, moving and unusual. Food plays a central role in the film. It is Martha's only real connection to the world, though that starts to change when Mario (Sergio Castellitto), also a very talented chef, comes to work at her restaurant.
