Sirât begins on a dancefloor carved into the Moroccan mountains, a swirl of light, dust and bass. Luis (Sergi López) and his teenage son Esteban (Bruno Núñez Arjona) clutch a photo of the daughter, who has been missing for far too long. Following a moving caravan of ravers south, they trade sleep for rhythm, and the night’s pulse for the horizon’s unblinking test.
Sweeping visuals render the epic expanse, reducing humans to scale against ridges and sky. The score moves from pounding techno to ambient drift, letting the music lead the film’s heartbeat. As the journey turns perilous, what remains is a rite of passage; brutal, beautiful and unfinished. Winner of the Cannes Jury Prize and the Cannes Soundtrack Award, Oliver Laxe’s latest is both a hypnotic road movie and a haunting reckoning, where survival is measured not in distance travelled, but in what you can carry forward.
