THE DRAMA (35mm)

A happily engaged couple (Zendaya, Robert Pattinson) is put to the test when an unexpected turn sends their wedding week off the rails. Co-starring Mamoudou Athie, Alana Haim, Hailey Gates, and Zoë Winters. Directed by Kristoffer Borgli (DREAM SCENARIO, SICK OF MYSELF). Exclusive 35mm Engagement

“Provocative and compulsively watchable – a romcom that obliterates the very meaning of the word…. That makes it a small miracle in our modern artistic landscape: a film that never spoon-feeds its audience…. It’s conflicted, messy, ambiguous, and imperfect, but it’s treated with enough of a delicate, scrupulous hand to test the moral waters and not degrade itself in the process.” —Clarisse Loughrey, The Independent

“It may be an entertaining conversation piece, but make no mistake, THE DRAMA is also one of the best movies you'll see this year…. Pattinson and Zendaya are wonderful in these roles. Borgli is interested in the way psychic distress bubbles up through our bodies, especially in the context of a relationship, and his stars are perfectly suited to portraying their turmoil with their physicality.” —Alex Harrison, ScreenRant

“A weird, wonderful hybrid of cultural and aesthetic sensibilities, led by an immensely dialed-in cast who deliver some of their most natural and unnerving performances to date…. One of the most delightfully nerve-wracking rabbit holes you’re likely to tumble down this year.” —Siddhant Adlakha, IGN
