What are the ingredients of a good life?
Fifty-year-old Giacomo from Calabria is urgently looking for an assistant for his beloved bakery. Someone who understands the magic hidden in baking bread. Sophie, a former ballet dancer whose career was abruptly cut short by an accident, is trying to redefine her life, her identity, her marriage. And so she takes a job as a... baker.
After all, in many ways a baker’s movements resemble those of a dancer: the rotation of the hands, the sway of the hips, the rhythmic kneading...
Little by little, Sophie becomes enchanted by the way Giacomo “choreographs” the making of his bread, and begins to realize that the little bakery is something more than just a workplace.
For there, among the ovens and to the lyrics of Giacomo’s songs, she discovers the wisdom of an ordinary man, the joy of small things, and the courage to accept the new Sophie that is beginning to be born.
