Rudi Pichler works as a successful head chef in a Salzburg toque restaurant. His passion for cooking unexpectedly takes him on an extraordinary journey. It is a journey back in time to Pongau in 1945, 14 days after the German Wehrmacht surrendered . The small Windhager farming family is struggling to survive. Rudi accompanies mother Elisabeth and her children in their various measures to get food on the table. As a result, he not only gets to know forgotten culinary arts, but also finds new inspiration for his modern kitchen. He develops a unique menu that combines traditional roots with modern culinary art.
The film shows what it feels like to bravely step forward in a hopeless time and step by step towards a new future and what role food plays in it. It is intended to provide instructive, humorous and exciting insights into the times at that time in comparison with the current situation, into the way of life and the importance of regionally produced foods.
