Sirāt
This is the desert.
Directed by Oliver Laxe
Produced by Movistar Plus+, Los Desertores Films
A tense, melancholic search through the surreal landscape of desert raves, where a father and son pursue a missing daughter amid the disorientation of electronic excess and mountain isolation.
A man and his son arrive at a rave lost in the mountains of Morocco. They are looking for Marina, their daughter and sister, who disappeared months ago at another rave. Driven by fate, they decide to follow a group of ravers in search of one last party, in hopes Marina will be there.
