Murina 12/22 Blu-ray (Rental)

Murina is a fiery feminist outcry and stirring coming-of-age drama from executive producer Martin Scorsese. On a remote island along Croatia’s Adriatic coast, 17-year-old Julija spends her days diving for eel with her domineering father Ante and watching other teens party on a nearby yacht. Julija bristles at Ante’s heavy handed cruelty and resents her mother Nela’s passivity. She longs for independence but is unsure how to achieve it, until the arrival of the rich and mysterious Javier seems to offer a way out. But does his affection portend freedom, or something more sinister? Winner of the Caméra d’Or at the Cannes Film Festival, Murina features a ferocious, star-making central performance by Gracija Filipovic ́ and announces director Antoneta Alamat Kusijanovic ́ as a major new talent in world cinema.
