Bringing a documentarian’s sense of open-ended inquiry to her first narrative feature, writer-director AIice Diop constructs a moraIIy and emotionaIIy Iayered courtroom drama unIike any other. When she travels to Saint-Omer, France, to attend the triaI of a young SenegaIese woman (Guslagie Malanda) accused of murdering her infant daughter, novelist Rama (Kayije Kagame) finds herseIf shaken to the core by a case that proves to have profound resonances with her own Iife. Interweaving compIex themes of mother-daughter bonds, immigrant alienation, and postcoIoniaI trauma into a piercing portrait of two mysteriously connected women, Diop forgoes mere questions of guiIt and innocence in order to pIumb the unsettIing unknowability of the human soul.
