Juliette Binoche und Johnny Depp spielen die Hauptrollen in der "köstlichen", 5-fach mit dem Oscar® nominierten romantischen Komödie, die das Publikum verzaubert hat. Ein verschlafenes Städtchen in Frankreich im Jahr 1959. Der ewig gleiche Alltag wird nur durch den unerwarteten Einzug der geheimnisvoll schönen, jungen Vianne und ihrer Tochter in die Stadt unterbrochen. Vianne eröffnet eine Chocolaterie - und das auch noch mitten in der Fastenzeit. Ein wahrlich sinnliches Vergnügen beginnt: Trotz anfänglicher Skepsis können sich die Dorfbewohner der verführerischen Wirkung der süßen Köstlichkeiten nicht entziehen."Chocolat" (Blu-ray) by LEONINE is a heartwarming, visually enchanting drama that blends romance, humor and a touch of magical realism. Set in a small, tradition-bound French village, the story begins when a mysterious woman and her daughter open an exquisite chocolate shop right at the beginning of Lent. With her almost intuitive sense for people's desires and sorrows, she uses her extraordinary chocolate creations to slowly melt the emotional "ice" of the villagers and challenge rigid moral conventions. The Blu-ray edition offers the film in high picture and sound quality, allowing the colorful imagery of the French town, the lovingly composed interior scenes, and the sensual close-ups of the chocolate creations to fully unfold on the screen.
