Irish Film Institute -THE BIGGER PICTURE: AMERICAN HONEY

THE BIGGER PICTURE: AMERICAN HONEY

Director: ANDREA ARNOLD

163 mins, UK-USA, 2016, Digital. F-Rated.


Andrea Arnold’s first foray into American culture is this episodic road movie, set against some unexpectedly stunning landscapes, following the trip of a subscription magazine sales crew, into which then newcomer Sasha Lane jumps to escape a broken home. Shot by Robbie Ryan, the film features some of Arnold’s recurrent themes and naturalistic settings, centred as with Fish Tank on the sexual awakening of the central character.

Aisha Bolaji of the GALPAL  Collective will present American Honey for IFI Bigger Picture.
