Xocolate

Some chemistry needs the right catalyst.

Daniela Escalona and Manuel Melinkoff have been circling each other for a long time stolen looks across the workshop, hidden gestures, secret fantasies neither of them has dared to say out loud. She's the chocolatier. He supplies the cacao. And between them, there has always been something that had nothing to do with business.

Then comes the chocolate. A special Amazonian aphrodisiac creation that makes all that careful restraint feel suddenly, completely unnecessary.

Shot in Venezuela, home of the finest cacao in the world, and directed by Lis Freimer, this is a deeply sensual, wildly passionate and beautifully intimate film about two real people who were always going to end up exactly here. The food just made it happen faster.

Prepare to salivate. For more than one reason.
