Anora (Madison), a young Uzbek-American exotic dancer and sex worker from Brighton Beach, gets her chance at a Cinderella story when she meets and impulsively marries Ivan (Eydelshteyn), the son of a Russian oligarch. But once the news reaches Russia, her fairytale is threatened as her new husband’s parents travel to New York to get the marriage annulled.
Written, directed, and edited by Sean Baker (The Florida Project, Red Rocket, Greg the Bunny), Anora won the Palme d'Or at the 2024 Cannes Film Festival—the first American film awarded the prize since 2011. Reserve at rsvp@montaukclub.com
