MY FAVOURITE CAKE (12A)

Maryam Moghadam | Behtash Sanaeeha | Iran | France | Sweden | Germany | 2024 | 97’

A profoundly moving meditation on ageing, loneliness and love in unexpected places. An elderly Iranian widow encounters a lonely taxi driver in Tehran, where female oppression and strict social structures are subverted as a delicate kinship blooms against the odds. This is a gorgeously constructed two-hander that offers a reflection on societal repression of both men and women, and a powerful note of hope that cuts through deep pain, co-written and directed by Iranian filmmakers Maryam Moghaddam and Behtash Sanaeeha.
