We’re happy to offer our DC readers the chance to attend a free virtual screening of Sitting in Bars with Cake, Prime Video’s new “cakebarring” film starring Yara Shahidi, Odessa A’zion, with Ron Livingston and Bette Midler.
Synopsis: Inspired by true events, Sitting in Bars with Cake follows best friends Jane (Yara Shahidi) and Corinne (Odessa A’zion) navigating life in Los Angeles in their twenties. Corinne, the ultimate extrovert, convinces her shy-but-extremely-talented home baker best friend Jane to commit to a year of baking cakes and bringing them to bars, with the goal of meeting people and developing confidence–also known as “cakebarring.” During their year of “cakebarring,” Corinne receives a life-altering diagnosis, and the pair face a challenge unlike anything they’ve experienced before. Sitting in Bars with Cake isn’t only a madcap joyride through some of L.A.’s most colorful watering holes, it’s a moving celebration of female friendship, forging identity, and finding joy in the most unexpected places.
The screening takes place on Thursday, August 31st at 7:00pm. This is a virtual screening so you can sit back and watch the film from the comfort of your own home by going to this Amazon screenings RSVP link.
Sitting in Bars with Cake hits Prime Video on September 8th.
