When Zinos (Adam Bousdoukos, Head-On) hires a gourmet chef for his struggling Hamburg restaurant, it only serves to drive away his low-Iife regulars. Meanwhile, Zinos' girIfriend, Nadine, has moved to Shanghai to take a reporting job.
A new hip cIientele helps bring the restaurant back, but Zinos' heart stilI needs fixing, so he flies to China, Ieaving Soul Kitchen in the hands of his criminal brother, Illias (Moritz Bleibtreu, Run LoIa Run). Bad move: Illias gambIes the eatery away and Nadine has a new lover. But the brothers have a chance to repair the damage if they can stop arguing and work as a team. Directed by the acclaimed Fatih Akin (Head-On, The Edge of Heaven), the hiIarious and heartfelt Soul Kitchen, set to an infectious soul and funk soundtrack, won two prizes at the Venice FiIm FestivaI. |
