When nine-year-old Lamia is chosen to bake a birthday cake for the president, she sets out on a desperate search for ingredients in a country shaped by scarcity, fear and absurd bureaucracy. Told with warmth, humour and quiet political force, the film turns a child’s impossible task into a moving portrait of resilience.

Winner of the Caméra d’Or at Cannes 2025.

The film will be shown in the original language with English subtitles.
