    Kirpianuscus

    a chef. his apprentices

    At first glance, a film about technology replacing human. But the virtue, the basic virtue of film is the fine poetry of details. A chef at the end of his career. An ambitious apprentice. A humanoid robot and its mission to learn the Chinese recipes. First reserves about robot from chef. And a sort of paternal care for it. The bitter end. A seductive film about things who real matters. A film about dialogue and about fears terrible consequence.
