Sirat at SieFilm Center

-
Sie Film Center, 2510 E Colfax Ave, Denver, CO 80206
A father (Sergi López) and his son arrive at a rave deep in the mountains of southern Morocco. They are 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.
