Vianne Rocher (Juliette Binoche), an expert chocolatière and her six-year-old daughter Anouk (Victoire Thivisol), drift across Europe following the north wind. In 1959, they arrive in a quiet, traditional French village, overseen by village mayor the Comte de Reynaud (Alfred Molina) at the start of the 40 days of Lent. Vianne opens a chocolate shop, much to Reynaud's chagrin.
