Carrick-on-Suir theatre film club to screen My Favourite Cake
The movie is about an Iranian widow who refuses to accept a lonely life
Brewery Lane Theatre Film Club will screen the Iran based film My Favourite Cake this Tuesday, January 14 at 8pm.
The film, directed by Maryam Modhadam and Behtash Sanaeeha, is about an elderly woman Mahin, who has lived as a widow in Tehran for over 30 years.
She fondly remembers life in Iran before the Islamic Revolution, but now cannot even visit her Europe-based daughter, because she is too old to be granted a visa by authorities.
Refusing to accept a lonely future, Mahin takes control of her destiny when she meets taxi-driver Faramarz.
The film is in Farsi with English subtitles. Entry for film club members is €5 and €10 for non-members. All are welcome.
