Angel Cake

2006 · 1 season

A gentle, bittersweet comedy-drama about ordinary lives touched by ambiguous miracles, mixing warmth with quiet scepticism.

Overview
A cakemaker and her dysfunctional family live on a grimy estate. When Elaine's rock buns come out of the oven resembling the Virgin Mary, potentially miraculous consequences follow for her family and friends. Her arthritic mother Millie is suddenly able to move freely, her irresponsible son Todd falls in love, and both she and her husband Ed are offered the chance of other relationships. But miracles are not all they seem.
