SIRAT
Director: Oliver Laxe | Year: 2025 | Rating: Unclassified 18+ | Run time: 115 mins | Country: France, Spain | Genre: Adventure, Drama, Music | Language: French, Spanish with English subtitles
Shot against the stark beauty of the Sahara, this hypnotic odyssey fuses propulsive techno, grief, and raw possibility into a charged meditation on love, loss, and survival at the edge of collapse.
Set in a near-apocalyptic future, Sirât follows Luis (Sergi López, Pan’s Labyrinth) and his young son Esteban (Brúno Nuñez) across the vast Moroccan desert, searching for his daughter who vanished at a rave months earlier. Moving from party to party, they join itinerant ravers seeking freedom from looming conflict and chasing whispers of a semi-mythical final gathering near the Mauritanian border. Winner of the Jury Prize at 2025 Cannes Film Festival.
Contains strong violence, drug use, and strong themes.
