Fragrance of the Pomegranates Synopsis

Mingliang, a graduate of the Academy of Fine Arts, forsaken his chance for further study to be with his seriously ill adoptive mother, returning to the foothills of the Tianshan Mountains, where the fragrance of pomegranates fills the air.

He took over the management of the "Red Pomegranate" restaurant, to which his mother had devoted half her life, but which was on the verge of closure.

To revive the restaurant, he shouldered all responsibilities like a patriarch, helping chef Murati, waiter Bayar, and kitchen assistant Ankar, among others, overcome a host of career and personal challenges. He also enlisted the help of gourmet Anton to transform "Red Pomegranate" into a high-quality restaurant.

In this process, Mingliang not only experienced personal growth and felt the warmth of family, but also gained a deeper understanding of the true meaning of artistic creation through the lens of everyday life, accumulating strength for his future artistic career.
