The Dinner

Set in the turbulent aftermath of the Spanish Civil War, a grand dinner is planned to celebrate the nationalist triumph of Franco in the iconic and luxurious Hotel Palace in Madrid. But what the victors don’t know is who's in the kitchen… April 15th, 1939. Two weeks after the end of the Spanish Civil War, lieutenant Medina bursts into the Hotel Palace with an unexpected announcement: Franco will dine there that night with his top generals. What they don’t know is that the dinner will be prepared by a group of Republican chefs who have just been given their last chance to escape the country.
