The Cakemaker

Watch Trailer
“Drool-worthy confectionery expresses unspoken emotions in THE CAKEMAKER, the first feature from the writer and director Ofir Raul Graizer and a master class in exquisite restraint. – Jeannette Catsoulis, The New York Times

Thomas, a young German baker, is having an affair with Oren, a married, Israeli man who has frequent business visits in Berlin. When Oren dies in a car crash in Israel, Thomas travels to Jerusalem looking for answers regarding his death. Under a fabricated identity, Thomas infiltrates 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 makes German cakes and cookies that bring life into her café.  He finds himself involved in Anat’s life in a way far beyond what he anticipated, and to protect the truth, he will stretch his lie to a point of no return.
