TASTE is a 5-minute magical realism short film, produced as part of an MA in Film & Media Production at Coventry University.

A backstreet bakery sells cakes that fix life's problems — until a heartbroken young man walks in asking to forget the woman he hurt, and the baker's final scene reveals she has her own reason to remember him.

Tone: Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind meets Chocolat. Warm, funny, with a sting in the tail.

We shoot over two days in July at a real artisan tea room in Coventry (location confirmed, venue closed to the public on shoot days). Directed by Sabi Singh.

All cast receive credit, meals on set, and graded footage/stills for showreel use.
