Winner of the Jury prize at the Cannes Film Festival and selected as Spain’s submission for the forthcoming Oscars®.
A father and his son arrive at a rave deep in the mountains of southern Morocco. They’re searching for Mar — daughter and sister — who vanished months ago at one of these endless, sleepless parties. Surrounded by electronic music and a raw, unfamiliar sense of freedom, they hand out her photo again and again. Hope is fading but they push through and follow a group of ravers heading to one last party in the desert. As they venture deeper into the burning wilderness, the journey forces them to confront their own limits.
Tthe fourth film from French-Spanish auteur Oliver Laxe, Sirât showcases a vision of cinema which is both strikingly original and distinctly uncompromising. Blending staggering visuals and hypnotic soundscapes, this hallucinatory road-trip is one of the most profound and unforgettable cinematic experiences of the year.
