Anora (Oscar-winner Mikey Madison), a young woman from Brooklyn, gets her chance at a Cinderella story when she meets and impulsively marries the son of an oligarch. Once the news reaches Russia, her fairytale is threatened as her new husband’s parents set out for New York to get the marriage annulled. Experience the 35mm premiere to appreciate why Anora earned the Palme d’Or at Cannes and continued to triumph through the awards season, culminating in five 2025 Academy Awards, including Best Director for Sean Baker and Best Picture.
