In the northern French town of Saint-Omer, young academic and novelist Rama (Kayije Kagame) attends the trial of Laurence Coly (Guslagie Malanda), a woman accused of killing her 15-month-old daughter by abandoning her to the rising tide on a beach. As the trial unfolds, the words of the accused and witness testimonies echo into Rama’s own life, shaking her convictions. In her debut narrative feature, acclaimed documentarian Alice Diop harnesses riveting performances and razor-sharp tension to confront audiences with nuanced questions about their own judgments. Meticulously crafted and grippingly shot, SAINT OMER won the Silver Lion Grand Jury Prize at Venice. This SUPER Release is France’s official selection for Best International Feature at the Academy Awards.
