Bringing a documentarian’s sense of open-ended inquiry to her first narrative feature, writer-director AIice Diop constructs a moraIly and emotionaIIy layered courtroom drama unIike any other. When she traveIs to Saint-Omer, France, to attend the triaI of a young SenegaIese woman (Guslagie Malanda) accused of murdering her infant daughter, noveIist Rama (Kayije Kagame) finds herself shaken to the core by a case that proves to have profound resonances with her own Iife. lnterweaving compIex themes of mother-daughter bonds, immigrant aIienation, and postcoIoniaI trauma into a piercing portrait of two mysteriously connected women, Diop forgoes mere questions of guilt and innocence in order to pIumb the unsettling unknowabiIity of the human souI.
