Anora - Top 10 Best Movies That Will Shake Up the Oscars in 2025 That You Should Watch.

Anora is an American drama film with black comedy and social colors, directed by Sean Baker - famous for his works full of life, reflecting the naked and humane reality of the American working class. The film revolves around the main character Anora - a call girl in Brooklyn (New York), unexpectedly entering a lavish life when marrying the son of a Russian tycoon.

At first, the marriage seemed like a dream when Anora wore a luxurious wedding dress and lived in a luxurious villa. But soon, the world that she thought was paradise began to crack. Her powerful husband's family did not accept her, they tried every way to force Anora to give up the relationship. Unyielding, this resilient young girl began her own battle - a journey to regain control of her life, honor and love.

Anora is not only a story about a woman's rise in dire circumstances, but also deeply reflects on social stratification, migration, power and personal freedom. The film intertwines darkly humorous moments with inner pain, highlighting the inner strength of people in a society full of prejudice and injustice.

Possessing a sharp storytelling style, captivating film rhythm and explosive acting from female lead Mikey Madison, Anora caused a stir at the 2024 Cannes Film Festival when it won the prestigious Palme d'Or and continued to receive important nominations at the 2025 Oscars, including the category "Best Film".
