WINNER · GRAND JURY PRIZE · VENICE

In one of the most buzzed-about films of the 2023 awards season, and the narrative debut of acclaimed documentarian Alice Diop (Nous), a young novelist is forced to confront her personal traumas as she observes the trial of a woman accused of infanticide.

Saint-Omer court of law. Young novelist Rama attends the trial of Laurence Coly, a young woman accused of killing her 15-month-old daughter by abandoning her to the rising tide on a beach in northern France. But as the trial continues, the words of the accused and witness testimonies will shake Rama’s convictions and call into question our own judgement.

Extraordinary. An unblinking stunner. Saint Omer extends the clear-eyed gaze and burning social interest of Diop's non-fiction work into new narrative terrain, with nary a tremor of uncertainty” - The Guardian
