Sirat

Luis and his pre-teen son Esteban arrive at an illegal desert rave in Morocco – they are searching for missing daughter/sister Mar, last seen at a similar event six months earlier. When the search is unsuccessful, they decide to follow a rag-tag group of clubbers who are travelling to the next rave in Mauritania. The trip will change their lives forever. 

One of the most talked about films at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival, Sirāt is a bold work that is hard to forget . Galician director Laxe (Fire Will Come) has created a gripping, visceral thriller , which is required to be seen on the big screen for a truly immersive and visionary cinema experience. Sirāt is a future cult classic.
