The Ceremony Dir Jack King. 2024 United Kingdom, Languages :Kurdish /English/ Romanian / Arabic with English subtitles Back and white, 1hr 32min BBFC15 Two migrant workers find themselves thrown together in a quest to bury a body in this hypnotic and visually stunning drama. The story begins with a stolen watch, a tragic death, and two migrant workers (played by Tudor Cucu-Dumitrescu and Erdal Yıldız) who make a fateful decision: to bury a young asylum-seeker (Mo’min Swaitat) in the hills. As they journey through the landscape with the man’s body, the pair are forced into a powerful reckoning—with grief, with each other, and with the land itself. Beautifully directed and performed and shot in stark black and white with a vivid sense of visual splendour, this humane and moving film packs quite the emotional punch. Winner of the Sean Connery Award for Feature Filmmaking Excellence at the 2024 Edinburgh International Film Festival.
