The Seed of the Sacred Fig (2024)

I feel there’s something that needs to be said about social justice and how it relates to world issues. All around the globe, people are valiantly speaking out for what they believe in, be that basic abortion rights or the ceasefire to one of the most horrific conflicts in modern human history. “The Seed of the Sacred Fig,” NEON’s lesser priority this awards season, is a towering thriller that shows what happens when powerful men go down the political rabbit hole, endangering those close to them with harmful and oftentimes wrong beliefs.
