A magical romantic comedy inspired by a true story. François, a French Michelin three-star chef, faces the greatest challenge of his life during the pandemic. By chance, he discovers the diary of his late uncle—a priest who spent his entire life, from the age of 25 until his death, serving in an Indigenous Taiwanese tribe. Within its pages lie the secrets of traditional Indigenous winemaking and ceremonial cuisine. Letting go of everything, François follows the diary’s path on a flavor-seeking journey through Indigenous Taiwan. Along the way, he meets A-Lin, a tattooed young woman unwilling to inherit her tribe’s shamanic legacy. From misunderstanding to collaboration, they cross cultures and time, weaving a fantastical journey of taste and love.
