Winning five awards at the Oscars including best actress for breakout actress Mikey Madison and a record breaking four prizes for its director Sean Baker, Anora was the big winner at this years Academy Awards. Anora (Mikey Madison), a young sex worker from Brooklyn, sees her world change when she meets – and impulsively marries – Vanya, the impetuous son of a billionaire oligarch who offers her a glamorous new life. However, when the news reaches Russia and Vanya’s parents catch wind of the union, they send their henchmen to annul the marriage, setting off a wild chase through the streets of New York. An audacious, thrilling, and comedic modern-day twist on a Cinderella story, Sean Baker’s Palme d’Or winner is a rollercoaster ride anchored by a captivating heroine.
