What is “Sirât” about?

Óliver Laxe’s “Sirât” follows a father (Sergi López) searching for his daughter alongside his son (Bruno Núñez Arjona) at a rave in the southern Moroccan desert. Coming up empty, the two journey with a group of ravers to a second, secret event deeper into the desert, following them along a dangerous path as a World War III-like event takes place in the background.

What was “Sirât” nominated for?

Written by Laxe and Santiago Fillol, “Sirât” received an Academy Award nomination for Best International Feature as Spain’s representative in the category. It joins “It Was Just an Accident,” “The Secret Agent” and “Sentimental Value” as one of the four films distributed by Neon to be nominated in the category. The only non-Neon nominee is “The Voice of Hind Rajab,” directed by Kaouther Ben Hania and representing Tunisia.

“Sirât” also picked up a Best Sound nomination at the Academy Awards, with Amanda Villavieja, Laia Casanovas and Yasmina Praderas making up the first female-led sound team to get nominated in the category. Kangding Ray’s pulsing composition was shortlisted for Best Original Score, though the film did not ultimately get a nomination.
