In a tantalizing tale about desire Vianne Rocher (Juliette Binoche) and her six-year-old daughter (Victoire Thivisol) open a chocolate shop in a provincial French village. The townspeople are shocked when Vianne leaves her shop open during Lent, but her confections are too tempting for them to resist, especially for Roux (Johnny Depp) who wants more than sweets from beautiful Vianne.
