Sean Baker's Palme d’Or winner Anora is an audacious, thrilling, and frequently hilarious modern variation on the Cinderella story. Mikey Madison (Better Things; 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. 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. Nominated for 6 Academy Awards including Best Picture, Best Director and Best Actress (Mikey Madison).
“Plays like a wild dream—first joyous, then catastrophic, and always fiercely unpredictable.” —New Yorker
