One of the most buzzed-about movies at Cannes, this bombastic edge-of-your-seat thrill ride follows a devoted father desperately searching for his missing daughter amid the underground rave scene in the harsh Moroccan desert. Shot in breathtaking 16mm by visionary Spanish auteur Oliver Laxe and featuring a pulse-pounding techno score, this adrenaline-filled journey through the depths of grief and destruction is a deranged masterpiece.
