Babette's Feast (1987)
"Babettes gæstebud" (original title)On the desolate coast of Denmark live the two beautiful daughters of a devout clergyman who preaches salvation through self-denial. Both girls sacrifice youthful passion to faith and duty, and even many years after their father's death, they keep his austere teachings alive among the townspeople. But with the arrival of Babette, life for the sisters and their tiny hamlet begins to change. Soon, Babette has convinced them to try something truly outrageous---a gourmet French meal!
