What is Sirāt about?
A father and daughter cross the Moroccan desert chasing rumors of an underground rave that may hold the key to their grief. Oliver Laxe's Sirāt is less a plot than a trance — dust, bass lines, and the thin line between pilgrimage and oblivion — anchored by Sergi López in one of the year's most physically committed performances.
