From Fatih Akin, the director of Head On and The Edge of Heaven comes a comedy about family and friends, about love, trust, loyalty, and catering.

Zinos’ restaurant, Soul Kitchen, has certainly seen better days—more of a greasy spoon with its currywurst and schnitzel, it's not exactly buzzing. When his girlfriend Nadine accepts a job in Shanghai, Zinos decides that perhaps it is time he cut his losses, sell up and join her in China. But the Health Dept has a different idea. If Zinos wants to sell, The Soul Kitchen will have to pass their inspections… Enter a psychotic artist-chef, Zinos' jailbird brother on day-release, an ancient Greek mariner, staff that are so hip it hurts and a menacing property developer, and you have a recipe for Hamburg’s coolest new nightspot. Or do you?

A madcap comedy about music, friendship, love and German cuisine. Less «
