Storyline



"A Touch of Spice" is a story about a young Greek boy (Fanis) growing

up in Istanbul, whose grandfather, a culinary philosopher and mentor,

teaches him that both food and life require a little salt to give them

flavor; they both require... A Touch of Spice. Fanis grows up to

become an excellent cook and uses his cooking skills to spice up the

lives of those around him. 35 years later he leaves Athens and travels

back to his birthplace of Istanbul to reunite with his grandfather and

his first love; he travels back only to realize that he forgot to put

a little bit of spice in his own life. Written by Anonymous



Taglines: Pepper...is hot and scorches, just like the sun



Quotes

Fanis Iakovides: Geography is magical and the place to learn it best

is near a lighthouse. By the lighthouse, the compass spins wildly and

the air magnetises both the mind and the eyes.



this is one Oscar-worthy Greek film with breathtaking cinematography,

beautiful music, a clever screenplay and a great cast. In a nostalgic

way, it will remind the moviegoer that both food and life require 'a

touch of spice' to achieve that extra flavor. A heart-warming yet

bittersweet story about a special bond that forms between a

grandfather/mentor and his grandson, when he was a little boy, which

lingers throughout his life as a teenager and, finally, as an adult

... with a mix of politics during those times. And the pretty young

girl, who dances for him ... It will make you laugh; it will make you

cry and, most likely, you will also leave the cinema wishing it did

not end.
