Country: Pakistan
Director: Asim Abbasi
Cast: Aamina Sheikh, Sanam Saeed, Adnan Malik & Syed Mohammad Ahmed.
Zareen, the middle daughter lives with her parents in Pakistan, while older brother Zain and younger sister Zara pursue their lives in New York and London, respectively. After a long time, the family reunites when their father suffers from congestive heart failure.
The story may look different, but the basic theme reminds me of the Bollywood movie 'Kapoor & Sons'. Like Bol (2011), You can see plenty of female-centric Pakistani films where women make more sense than men. Cake can be also added to the list of movies that move away from the image of an alpha male and Still Bol (2011) holds the number one position of that category. The mystery content or the Jamali family secrets can be easily predictable unless you are Zara. Overall, It was selected as the Pakistani entry for the Best Foreign Language Film at the 91st Academy Awards and this cake is delicious to have if you consider family as your first priority.
Verdict: Good
