The Kadam family has run a restaurant in Mumbai for several years, but then after election there was a fire in their village and the Kadam family lost their loving mother and their lovely restaurant, but the chef of the family Hassan had hopes. Hopes for food. The Kadam family firstly moved to England but then moved to France where they by an accident ended up in a little village. In this little village the father of the Kadam family finds an old restaurant that after some explaining and discussion the family opened their own restaurant. Hassan explored new foods and the other restaurant next door (aka their competition). The restaurant next door has earned a Michelin Star and when Hassan meets the sous chef things starts to happen. But what? You'd have to watch in order to know.
I think that this movie is something special because it's about something that I love - food and as one of the quotes I noted "food are like memories". This is one of my food memories and it may take a hundred-foot journey to make it. But we all have to make it, don't we? To win the battle in our own life. I give this movie a 10/10 stars, it has everything that I enjoy watching and I recommend you to watch it.

Tomas and his wife Ebba, with their kids Vera & Harry, goes to vacation in the Alps (during 5 days). On their second day they were almost struck by an avalanche but it was a false alarm so they turned out alright. However when this happened Tomas ran away from his family which causes a crisis within the family.
It was an amazingly slow start but once the movie took it's speed up it was alright. The editing in this movie was really special because of the movie being so slow for starting up until it got it's flow. The music was also really interesting because it was the same type of recording playing all over again but in different moments so you actually felt a different feeling every time. I give this movie a 5/10 stars, it was kind of fun.
Hope you enjoyed reading this Movie Weekend and I'll see you the week after next week. I'm your writer Johanna Jay and I wish you a pleasant start of the week.
