Anora, a critically acclaimed black comedy directed by Sean Baker, tells the story of a dancer named Anora, portrayed by Mikey Madison, who falls for Ivan, the son of a Russian oligarch, leading to a chaotic and impetuous marriage. The film subverts traditional fairy tale narratives, showcasing the hedonistic and precarious world of sex work and wealth while presenting Anora's journey as both wild and perilous. As their relationship develops, Ivan's powerful parents attempt to separate the couple, forcing Anora into a madcap adventure to reclaim her autonomy. Madison's performance has been praised, with Baker noting her dedication and immersion into the role, including co-choreographing her dance scenes. The film cleverly intertwines moments of humor with darker themes, reflecting on ambition, love, and self-discovery amid chaos, all while dressed in an ultra-cinematic style. Anora’s pursuit of a better life reveals both the allure and the dangers of her choices, as she learns that true salvation must come from within.
