A luxury hotel. Steaks are sizzling. Love handles are getting massaged. Boy meets Girl in a hotel kitchen. A surprise hit comedy by mumblecore star Jakob Lass.

Sweet young Clemens is a newbie at this hotel spa. Tough cookie Lara has to fight it out in the kitchen pecking order. The elevator brings them together.

Hanging out in the bliss of co-dependency, the friction builds... and ignites.

"I still remember how I hung the film posters of LOVE STEAKS in Berlin pubs with Jakob Lass in a night and fog action. Jakob succeeds with this film a more than remarkable cinematic experience. I laughed a crazy amount, lived, admired the aesthetic images and followed the maximally well-cast main characters to every second. Jakob Lass has always made his own rules, relying on the power of moving images and the chemistry between his main characters. In this he is a great role model for me." (Sooner curator Eline Gehring)

"The kind of film that has been missing in German cinemas for a long time." (Der Spiegel)
