Master Cheng
A professional chef travels with his son to a small village in Finland, where he is offered accommodation in exchange for his cooking skills.
The latest from director Mika Kaurismäki (THE GIRL KING) takes a leaf out of brother Aki’s book with this compelling fish-out-of-water comedy about culture shock in rural Finland. Features some delightful culinary scenes and a few other special touches to distinguish it from numerous other films of a similar theme.
“Crowd-pleasing and unchallenging tosh which might be just the ticket during times like these.” ~ Dan Slevin, RNZ.
