French screen giants Isabelle Huppert and Pascal Greggory star in this marriage-under-fire drama nominated for Best Film at the 2005 Venice Film Festival.

Cathy is a stubborn, 40-year-old sous chef. Finally about to fulfil her lifelong dream, she sets about opening her own gastronomic restaurant – but nothing goes to plan in this French comedy.

Horrified at the prospect of her beloved school being sold, a young French girl named Madeline uses her wit and craftiness to attempt to save it, making an unlikely new friend in the process.
