The Mistress of Spices

2006, Paul Mayeda Berges

2.8/5

In India, Tilo has the ability of foreseeing the future. When their parents are killed by bandits, she is kidnapped but escapes and is raised by the First Mother in a sort of traditional cult of spices. She becomes the Mistress of Spices and is sent to the Spice Bazaar in San Francisco, with the mission of following three basic rules: help her clients to accomplish their desires with the spices, but never hers; never leave the store; and never be touched in the skin. When she meets the handsome American architect Doug, she feels a great attraction and desire for him, breaking the first rule and being punished by the spices.

If you like The Mistress of Spices, you might also like Films About Indian Americans, Films Set In San Francisco, 2000s Hindi-Language Films, and Magic Realism Films.
