Mistura

A prejudiced Franco-Peruvian woman is forced by financial necessity to open a restaurant in her home after her husband leaves her for another woman. Alongside a Nikkei chef, an indigenous cook and an Afro-Peruvian driver, she discovers Peru’s cultural and culinary diversity during the prosperous yet turbulent Lima of 1965.

In 1960’s Peru, a privileged French-Peruvian woman’s life unravels when her husband’s betrayal ostracizes her from elite society and leads her to embrace people from the very communities that she was raised to disregard.
Amidst the backdrop of newfound alliances, she embarks on a transformative journey that challenges societal norms and reveals Peru’s authentic identity through a daring culinary venture that celebrates the country’s remarkably diverse cuisine and peoples, igniting a revolution that redefines her life.
