STOP! roaring!.
Then you know that the film is truly exceptional!
Watching this film at the Cannes Film Festival was such a unique experience that I completely lost track of the things I normally pay attention to: the direction, the script, the editing, the acting, everything. Sean Baker takes us on another anti-stereotype journey that will make you forget about everything else going on in your life.
The 10-minute standing ovation was more than deserved – it was tense!
I am incredibly grateful for the privilege of seeing this masterpiece in Cannes at the iconic Grand Théâtre Lumière, just a few rows away from the set. Check out our exciting new films from this year’s film festivals including Venice, TIFF, New York Film Festival and more.
