A tantalizing tale about the ultimate sinful luxury: that dark mistress, chocolate. When an exotic stranger, Vianne Rocher, arrives in the French village of Lansquenet and opens a chocolate boutique directly opposite the church, Father Reynaud identifies her as a serious danger to his flock – especially as it is the beginning of Lent, the traditional season of self-denial. Vianne’s plans for an Easter Chocolate Festival divide the whole community into a ‘Church not Chocolate’ battle. As mouths water in anticipation, can the solemnity of the Church compare with the pagan passion of a chocolate eclair? Rich, clever and mischievous, Chocolat is a feast for all the senses.
