Single Seventy-year-old Mahin chooses to revive her love life when she suddenly experiences a chance encounter in My Favourite Cake.

After the death of her husband and departure of her daughter to another country Mahin has been living a lonely life in Tehran. Her life is in a constant mundane cycle, reminding her that she is too old to do anything.

But Mahin wants to chance that narrative so she starts adding new things to her schedule. Soon enough she meets some who creates unpredictable surprises and memories.

Someone who makes her think ‘I want to bake My Favourite Cake’ for you. 

‘as well as everything else, this wonderfully sweet and funny film will contribute to the debate about whether repressive regimes are the nursery of artistic greatness.’ – The Guardian ★★★★★
