Description:

The Soul of Bread is a charming romantic comedy about love, tradition, and pastry. In a quiet town, Gaobing works endlessly to save a failing bakery owned by Mr Chiu, a man obsessed with his rock band, while apprentice Di shows no interest in baking. Frustrated by Gaobing's traditional methods, Mr Chiu's daughter and Gaobing's girlfriend, Ping, takes baking courses in the city. There, she meets Bread, a charismatic American-born baker whose magical creations might be the key to saving the shop. When Bread moves into Mr Chiu's house as Gaobing's roommate, tension rises. Bread openly pursues Ping and advocates for putting passion into baking, while Gaobing rejects Bread's western style, viewing him as a dumbass from America. As the rivalry heats up, Ping is caught between her loyal, traditional boyfriend and the exciting newcomer.
