A la Carte! – Freiheit geht durch den Magen 2022

France 1789: The gifted chef Manceron lives to relieve the Duke of Chamfort's boredom with his exquisite creations. But when he dares to serve something new at an important banquet, he is summarily fired. Back at his home farm in Auvergne, nothing awaits the great chef but the bleak prospect of serving bouillon and bread to dusty travellers - until a mysterious jam cook appears on the farm. Louise wants to be introduced to the art of cooking by the master. Her talented, almost sensual handling of wild herbs, wild berries and truffles captivates Manceron. When the pleasure-seeking duke announces himself for a visit, Louise sets about the preparations with suspiciously great commitment... And as events unfold, the mismatched couple create a revolution on a small scale through their courage: the first restaurant in France as a place of togetherness and enjoyment - for everyone!
