Chilean cinematic wunderkind Sebastián Lelio has followed his successful, award-winning A Fantastic Woman with another outstanding woman-focused story, having made a career of his remarkable insight into his female characters’ souls. Years ago, successful photographer Ronit was disowned by her Orthodox Jewish community for having a relationship with a girl she grew up with. Now she must return to attend to the affairs of her late father – a rabbi, the highest authority in the insular enclave. The discord surrounding the funeral is further exacerbated when she meets her former lover... A multi-layered drama about love, belief and women’s roles, exploring the boundaries between faith and sexuality.
