Join us (if you dare) for SIRAT! Bristlecone Film Collective's third film in our new monthly screening series, our inaugural initiative fostering the film community in the Northern Sierras.

Directed by: Oliver Laxe; Premiere Cannes Film Festival 2025; Oscar Nominated Best Foreign Film 2026

Luis is traveling through southern Morocco with his son, Esteban. They're searching for his daughter, who has been missing for five months, last seen at a dance festival in the desert. As the pair travel from party to party, they hear of a semi-mythical rave near the border of Mauritania. Descending into the scorched terrain as a not-so-distant global conflict encroaches, Luis and Esteban are soon drawn into a primal landscape in which they must walk a tightrope between heaven and hell.

Recommended viewing age - 18+; Please note that Sirat contains intense, visceral, and unexpected traumatic scenes. Viewer discretion is advised.

Doors open at 7:45 p.m., screening begins at 8:15 p.m. There will be a post fil- discussion afterward.

Entry includes one free concession: soda or snack.
