A father (Sergi López) and his son arrive at a rave deep in the mountains of southern Morocco. They’re searching for Mar – daughter and sister – who vanished months ago at one of these endless, sleepless parties. Surrounded by electronic music and a raw, unfamiliar sense of freedom, they hand out her photo again and again. Hope is fading but they push through and follow a group of ravers heading to one last party in the desert. As they venture deeper into the burning wilderness, the journey forces them to confront their own limits.

“Sirāt” had its world premiere in the main competition of the Cannes Film Festival, where it won the Jury Prize and was selected as the Spanish submission for the Best International Feature Film at the 98th Academy Awards.
