Join Indie Focus for a free screening of "The President's Cake." The screening will be followed by a live Q&A with the film's director and writer, Hasan Hadi, moderated by Mark Olsen. |
While people across 1990s Iraq struggle to survive, 9-year-old Lamia has been selected to prepare a cake to celebrate the president's birthday. In a landscape of fear and scarcity where basic ingredients are nearly impossible to find, Lamia sets out on a determined journey throughout the big city in search of eggs, flour and sugar. Accompanied by her grandmother, her loyal friend Saeed and her pet rooster Hindi, she navigates vendors and police officers along the way. |
