MY FAVOURITE CAKE
Iran (subtitles), 2024 Comedy/Drama
97 mins, Rated M
Cast: Lili Farhadpour, Esmaeel Mehrabi.
Mahin is 70 and has been a widow for over 30 years. Added to that, her two children live abroad, so she lives an uneventful life in Tehran, where women's rights are heavily restricted.
But one day, Mahin decides to join her visiting friends for an afternoon tea and a chance encounter with a taxi driver, Faramarz makes her feel alive again.
With the beginnings of a spark in her heart, Mahin invites Faramarz to dinner (despite the prying and judgmental eyes of her neighbours) and their evening is one that brings both of them unpredictable surprises and memories to treasure.
"One of the sweetest, most touching confections of the year!" – Evening Standard

Morning Aches Are Optional - Let’s Start the Year Sleeping Better
Hey neighbours,
Waking up with sore shoulders and stiff mornings? Here’s the plot twist - it might actually be your mattress (and pillow) letting you down.
It’s the perfect time to upgrade. New Year, New Bed! Our Boxing Day Sale is still on, so why not treat yourself to a mattress that actually supports you and helps you wake up refreshed? Side sleeper? Back sleeper? Tossing and turning? We’ve got tips and solutions for every kind of snoozer.
Don’t settle for mornings that hurt, your bed should work with you, not against you. Curious about how your mattress could be affecting your shoulders? Check out our blog: beds4u.co.nz...
