Press Reviews
"Having immersed himself in the kitchens and workshops of the Parisian gastronomy school Ferrandi, director Louis Farge seems very comfortable behind the stoves, much like his impressive lead actress, Annabelle Lengronne. The actress, nominated for the César Award for Most Promising Actress for 'La Fine Équipe' in 2017, conceals beneath her apron a deeply internalized rage. She also embodies the face of a haute cuisine undergoing transformation in the wake of #MeToo."
