- Synopsis
-
Every month on a Thursday evening, a group of four Italian rural women gather in a derelict stone house in the hills above Italy's Orvieto.
There - along with their friend, Marlena - they cook, sit down to a beautiful supper, drink their beloved local wines, and talk.
Here, surrounded by candlelight, good food, and friendship, they tell their life stories of loves lost and found, of aging and abandonment, of mafia grudges and family feuds, and of ingredients and recipes whose secrets have been passed down through the generations.
Around this table, these five friends share their food and all that life has offered them - the good and the bad.
