THE CAKEMAKER 2018, Israel | Germany, 105 min, NR (In Hebrew, German, and English with English Subtitles)

Thomas, a young German baker, is having an affair with Oren, an Israeli married man who has frequent business visits in Berlin. When Oren dies in a car crash in Israel, Thomas travels to Jerusalem seeking for answers regarding his death. Under a fabricated identity, Thomas infiltrates into the life of Anat, his lover’s newly widowed wife, who owns a small Café in downtown Jerusalem. Thomas starts to work for her and create German cakes and cookies that bring life into her Café. Thomas finds himself involved in Anat’s life in a way far beyond his anticipation, and to protect the truth he will stretch his lie to a point of no return.

This film currently has a 100% rating on Rottentomatoes.com! “The most fascinating kind of tension results, an unusual state of affairs that plays fair with the characters, and with us.” – Kenneth Turan, Los Angeles Times

“Sad and sweet, and with a rare lyricism, The Cakemaker believes in a love that neither nationality, sexual orientation nor religious belief can deter.” – Jeannette Catsoulis, New York Times
