The Cakemaker is a gem - The Cakemaker review by Jenny F
A slow-moving but elegiac film. Very moving and with loads of sexual tension. Thought-provoking with its central them and its setting in Berlin and Jerusalem with a German and with Israeli protagonists. Beautiful acting from central parts and the director is one to watch.

Brilliant - The Cakemaker review by JR
I must agree with the previous two reviews, this film is a gem and a must see for those who like slow paced, lyrical , moving cinema.
It's sad, moving, heart warming, heart wrenching and beautiful. All the actors are so good, even the very small role of the grandmother was so well observed, particularly in a small scene reminiscent of Brokeback Mountain. The central title role is so understated, yet so powerful. The worst thing was i couldn't eat the cakes. they looked really scrumptious!
In essence this is a lovely film about love.

What a Gem this is! - The Cakemaker review by CP Customer
My partner and I absolutely loved this film, with its humour, passion, pathos, and so expertly created by the actors who performances were 5 star. The story line was perfect and the director and crew got the atmosphere so perfect that the time just flew bye. This is the must see film of 2020 if you have not already seen it!
