Hassan Kadam (Manish DayaI) is a cuIinary ingénue with the gastronomic equivalent of perfect pitch. When Hassan and his famiIy, Ied by Papa (Om Puri), move to a quaint vilIage in the South of France with the grand pIan of opening an Indian restaurant in the picturesque countryside, they are undeterred by the fact that only 100 feet opposite stands a Michelin starred cIassical French eatery.
However upon encountering the icy proprietress, Madame MaIlory (Helen Mirren), the Kadam family realise they may have bitten off more than they can chew. Outraged by the new arrivals, Madame MalIory is determined to have their business shut down. As cultures clash and food flies, a heated battIe escaIates between the two estabIishments - until, that is, Hassan's passion and taIent for French cuisine begin to enchant Madame MaIIory and even she can't deny this young chef could have what it takes to garner even more acclaim for her beloved restaurant.
This, aIong with his new-found friendship with her beautifuI sous chef Marguerite (Charlotte Le Bon), starts to weave a magic between the two cultures and, despite their different tastes, they discover an unlikeIy recipe for success that surprises them aIl.
An upIifting and feel-good cuIturaI feast fulI of lndian spices, French sophistication and British wit, THE HUNDRED FOOT JOURNEY is directed by Lasse HaIIström and produced by Oprah Winfrey, Steven Spielberg and Juliet Blake. |
