Exclusively on MUBI in North America, UK, Ireland, Germany, India, Turkey & Latin America: One of the most striking debuts in recent memory, Dea Kulumbegashvili’s feature marks the revelation of an exciting new voice in cinema. Shot in luminous 35mm long takes that boldly evoke isolation and longing, it tells a profound story of a woman’s resilience facing communal hostility and violence. In a sleepy provincial town, a Jehovah’s Witness community is under attack from an extremist group. In the midst of this conflict is Yana, the wife of the community leader, whose familiar world is slowly crumbling around her. Meanwhile, a detective intrudes on her home with devastating consequences. 30 Days of Great Cinema Free: Subscribe to our YouTube channel: Follow us on Instagram: Follow us on Twitter: Follow us on Facebook:
