About Taste of Freedom
A young girl, cook Varia, loses her job because no one needs her haute cuisine in a roadside café. Sweet, energetic, witty – she runs as far away from home as possible in search of realization! But an unexpected discovery – a book by the forgotten legend of Ukrainian cuisine Olha Franko changes her life forever and inspires her to go local, instead of trendy!
Directed by Oleksandr Berezan, Taste of Freedom leans on a strong ensemble — Iryna Kudashova, Irma Vitovska, Tomasz Sobczak — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about romance titles of 2024.
