“Anora” had its world premiere at the 2024 Cannes Film Festival, where it won the prestigious Palme d’Or for writer/director Sean Baker and has garnered some of the best reviews of any feature film released this year. Baker and his cast (Mikey Madison, Mark Eydelshteyn, Yura Borisov, Karren Karagulian & Vache Tovmasyan) were kind enough to spend some time talking with us about their experiences making the film, their characters, working with Sean, and more; which you can listen to or watch below. Please be sure to check out the film, which will be released in theaters on October 18th from NEON and is up for your consideration for all eligible categories at this year’s Academy Awards. Thank you, and enjoy!
