Monia Chokri

Playing as part of Short Cuts Canada Programme 5

Hungover, Sarah is forced to go to a bachelorette party. After years of repressed judgments and forced civility, it takes just one outed secret to thoroughly transform the festivities into an all-encompassing showdown where no crude word is held back. Actress Monia Chokri's directorial debut winningly combines scrumptious aesthetics, hilarious content, and a forceful vision.
