Modern Masters

There are no current or future screenings planned for this film.

“Like the best of the [Dardenne brothers’] work, which this sobering return to form represents from its curious first shot to its furious last beat, its premise pulls tighter until even the simplest actions are endowed with breathless intensity.”
IndieWire

“Working in their rigorously lyrical drama-as-documentary style, the Dardennes place the audience on the hamster wheel of Tori and Lokita’s lives in a way that’s both harrowing and immersive.”
Variety

“Moving, politically committed, and with an absolute ring of hard-researched reality.”
Screen Daily

In this latest masterwork from the Belgian Dardenne brothers, young African immigrants Lokita and Tori are fighting for asylum in Belgium, only to encounter dangers equal to their crossing in Europe.
