The focus of Madame Vernet’s life is her passion for cultivating an awardwinning rose. With her family business facing financial hardship, she reluctantly agrees to hire staff from a back-to-work scheme. A good idea, however the new assistants know nothing about horticulture. In time, with guidance, tolerance and acceptance new skills are cultivated by all involved.

Breaking Bread (M) Israel/Palestine
86 mins
Customs, tastes and cultures collide when the first Muslim to win Israel’s MasterChef, establishes the A-Sham Arabic Food Festival. Its aim is to bring about social change through food by pairing Muslim and Jewish chefs to create dishes. This award-winning documentary showcases Palestinian and Israeli culinary traditions and the power of the people to make change rather than the politicians. The film leaves one feeling optimistic and yes - hungry!
