The Taste of Things
dir. Trần Anh Hùng · 2023
The essence of being alive is found in the deep connections we forge through shared experiences and the vulnerability that comes with love.
"The Taste of Things" invites viewers into a sumptuous world where culinary artistry serves as a metaphor for love and longing. This film delicately unpacks the complexities of a relationship steeped in tradition and unfulfilled desires, making it a feast for both the eyes and the heart.
Set in 1889 France, Dodin Bouffant is a chef living with his personal cook and lover Eugénie. They share a long history of gastronomy and love but Eugénie refuses to marry Dodin, so the food lover decides to do something he has never done before: cook for her.
