Storyline

The insecure apprentice waiter, Axel, is reprimanded by the old master, Fendrup, for his unpolished serving technique: 'It is necessary to dare to give a part of yourself in order to be able to provide the sublime. Do you dare, Axel?' This evening's 100th birthday party develops into Axel's dizzying encounter with love - of food, wine and the woman he serves for.
