Sean Baker's Palme d'Or winner ANORA is an audacious, thrilling, and comedic variation on a modern day Cinderella story. Mikey Madison (ONCE UPON A TIME IN HOLLYWOOD) captivates as Ani, a young sex worker from Brooklyn whose life takes an unexpected turn when she meets and impulsively marries Vanya, the impetuous son of a Russian billionaire. However, when Vanya's parents catch wind of the union, they send their henchmen to annul the marriage, setting off a wild chase through the streets of New York.
"The experience of watching Anora is akin to a spontaneous and unexpected invite to a epic house-wrecking party. ... Its visual language and layered bedlam evoke a re-envisioning of Pretty Woman ... by the Safdie Brothers. ... A real banger." - ScreenAnarchyAnora showing at: December 15, 8:30 pm
