Mostly Martha

(2001)Directed by Sandra Nettelbeck106 minDrama, Comedy, Romance

Martha Klein (Martina Gedeck) is the head chef at a chic Hamburg restaurant, and she wants one thing, which is for every dish to come out exactly right. She has no room for anyone else until an accident leaves her sister's eight-year-old daughter, Lina (Maxime Foerste), on her doorstep. Sandra Nettelbeck sets a woman who feeds strangers for a living beside a child who won't eat, and the film is about how hard it is to let someone take care of you.
