Sirāt

Opens March 6

Nominated for Best International Feature and Best Sound at the 2026 Academy Awards

In this unforgettable Cannes Jury Prize winner, a father (Sergi López, Pan’s Labyrinth) and his son arrive at a rave deep in the mountains of southern Morocco. They are searching for Mar—their 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.

"For sheer visceral excitement and sustained emotional force, I haven’t encountered its equal this year. It’s an extraordinarily propulsive piece of filmmaking, and every moment of it is suffused with feeling."
Justin Chang, The New Yorker
"Sirāt is taut and riveting and nearly all mood. You feel the exhilaration of veering off the path, the self-exile of speeding toward nowhere, the dread that this caravan has veered too far for its own safety."
Amy Nicholson, Los Angeles Times
