MY FAVOURITE CAKE
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Charming portrayal of a 70-year-old Iranian’s appetite for romance. Delicious!" The Guardian Life begins at 70 for Mahin, who decides to shake her life up in this funny, heartwarming film from Iran. Tender and funny yet politically daring, this double-Berlinale-winning late-life romance is guaranteed to steal your heart. The film follows 70-year-old Mahin (Lily Farhadpour), who has been living alone in Tehran for decades since her husband died and her daughter left for Europe. One afternoon, tea with friends leads her to reassess her life and choices; she decides to break her solitary routine and revitalise her love life. On a chance outing, where she witnesses an encounter between a woman and the morality police and decides to intervene, she comes across a lonely taxi driver called Esmail (Esmail Mehrabi). A newfound determination and confidence propels her to approach him, and she invites him over to her house in a bid for connection. What follows is an unpredictable, unforgettable evening.MY FAVOURITE CAKE showing at: October 18, 3:15 pmMY FAVOURITE CAKE
