Seventy-year-old Mahin, solitary until now, chooses to revive her love life. A chance encounter becomes an unforgettable evening.
The 70-year-old Mahin has been living alone in Tehran since her husband died and her daughter left for Europe. One afternoon, tea with friends leads her to break her solitary routine and revitalise her love life. But as Mahin opens herself up to a new romance, what begins as an unexpected encounter quickly evolves into an unpredictable, unforgettable evening.
“My Favourite Cake” is a film about second chances, about the possibility of starting from scratch regardless of age or gender, against the dictates of tradition. A courageous ode to freedom that finds in personal stories the subtlest form of subversion.
Berlinale FIPRESCI Award and Prize of the Ecumenical Jury.
