Mother Mary

In the newest film from writer/director David Lowery (A Ghost Story, The Green Knight), long-buried wounds rise to the surface when iconic pop star Mother Mary (Anne Hathaway, The Devil Wears Prada) reunites with her estranged best friend and former costume designer (Michaela Coel, I May Destroy You) on the eve of her comeback performance. Featuring original music from Charli xcx, Jack Antonoff, and FKA Twigs.

"...another story about the intersection of fame and art, but it’s not like one you’ve seen before, a two-hander that owes as much to The Exorcist as it does to Lady Gaga."
Brian Tallerico, RogerEbert.com
"The film is a boldly theatrical pop exorcism where the wounds of the past serve as a gateway to forces that can consume or lift the possessed to ecstatic new levels of self-expression."
Rocco T. Thompson, Slant Magazine
