The Cake Dynasty

Director:
Christian Lollike

Niels Agger is a baker frustrated by life whose cake factory is facing financial ruin. While he fails miserably, his wife, Else, tries to modernise the factory with the help of daughter June: healthy cakes are the order of the day. Niels is anything but enthusiastic about this concept and is much more interested in the new cleaning lady Zeinab. With her fun-loving nature and her sugary Arabic pastries, he sees the Iraqi woman as the saviour of his factory – and more.
