Synopsis

‘Pizza means Soul’ Ciro Oliva strongly proclaims in STELLA, a mouthwatering feel good film following a young, highly spirited and proud Neapolitan pizza chef who passionately aims to be the first pizzaiolo ever awarded with a prestigious Michelin Star. As the Michelin Guide is one of the most influential, notoriously secretive and critical institutions in gastronomy, Ciro's quest to elevate his restaurant Concettina ai Tre Santi to star level is far from easy, as other famous chefs, experts and journalists confirm. While Ciro and his dedicated crew are working hard, the cheerful customers of Concettina ai Tre Santi simply have the time of their life.
