Directors: Sarah Polley

Stars: Rooney Mara, Claire Foy, Jessie Buckley, Frances McDormand

In a remote religious colony, the women awaken to the truth that the men have been assaulting them for years, crimes long dismissed as dreams or the work of spirits. With the men away, a group of mothers, daughters, and grandmothers gather in a barn hayloft to debate their future. Should they forgive, fight, or leave with their children for an unknown world they have never seen? The film unfolds as an intense, intimate conversation, blending quiet anger, dark humor, and deep faith as they search for safety, justice, and a new way to live.
