Anora
Writer-director Sean Baker (Tangerine, The Florida Project, Red Rocket) returns with his most lauded drama yet - winner of both the Palme d’Or at Cannes and the Academy Award for Best Picture.
Anora, a sex worker from Brooklyn, gets her chance at a Cinderella story when she meets and marries the son of an oligarch. Once the news reaches Russia, her fairytale is threatened as the parents set out for New York to get the marriage annulled.
“A wildly entertaining, modern-day screwball comedy … Baker continually ups the ante on the picture’s unruly humour and propulsive pacing.” ~Wendy Ide, Screen Daily
“Anora is Sean Baker’s most searing and shattering film yet with a breakout performance from Mikey Madison.” ~Chase Hutchinson, Collider
“A thoroughly fun and provocative time at the movies.” ~Steve Pond, TheWrap
