A father 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.


What the Critics Are Saying

“An unforgettable portrait of the search for unity at the edge, and end, of the world.”
– Nick Schager, The Daily Beast

“Its title refers to the mythical Islamic bridge across hell, on which one false step leads to damnation. The path trodden by the film itself is no less risky, but it styles out the crossing astonishingly.”
– Robbie Collin, Daily Telegraph (UK)

“Sirāt won’t be leaving your mind anytime soon – and you need to see it big and loud.”
– Maxance Vincent, Film Speak
