From director Sean Baker (Tangerine, The Florida Project, Red Rocket) comes a screwball romantic comedy with bite.
Anora (Mikey Madison), a sex worker from Brooklyn, gets her chance at a Cinderella story when she meets twenty-one year old Ivan (Mark Eydelshteyn), the son of a wealthy Russian oligarch. Showing Anora how the 1% live, Ivan makes her an offer she cannot refuse. Once the news of their romance reaches Russia, Anora's fairytale is threatened as Ivan's parents travel to New York to straighten out their playboy son.
Mikey Madisons’s performance is simply amazing and sure to figure come awards season.
