Sirat

Oliver Laxe
RELEASE Thu 19 Feb

Sirat is a spectacular cinematic journey, in which a missing daughter, desert sand, and the electronic beats of Kangding Ray create a unique film experience. The Moroccan desert forms the impressive backdrop to this dangerous quest, with a number of memorable moments that definitively put Spanish director Oliver Laxe (Mimosas) on the map.

uis (Sergi López) arrives with his young son Esteban (Bruno Núñez Arjona) at an illegal rave deep in the desert in southern Morocco. He is searching for his daughter Mar, who disappeared months ago during one of these boundless parties. Desperate to find one last trace of Mar, they follow a group of ravers even deeper into the desert. This becomes a physical and spiritual journey, accompanied by a hypnotic soundtrack.

Sirat won the Jury Prize at the Cannes Film Festival. In addition to actor Sergi López (Pan's Labyrinth, Lazzaro felice), Oliver Laxe mainly relies on an inexperienced cast. The film was co-produced by Pedro Almodóvar's production company and is on the Oscar shortlist for Best International Film.
