Carrie Coon.
Ari Aster, you could be owed a lot of compensation money
THE LIBERATION is an incredibly heavy and dark film about a Holocaust survivor who abandons her family to join an all-female cult led by a seductive Lily James. Carrie Coon is an absolute beast of an actor, tapping into some really complex and weighty emotions to deliver a performance that grips and pulls you through this woman’s somber journey. Guy Nattiv’s latest is very personal and dramatic with a strong supporting performance from Bella Ramsey but is probably too much of a downer for its own good.Check out Daniel Howat’s full review on NextBestPicture.com here
The film follows a mother who abandons her family to join a secluded commune led by an enigmatic figure, prompting her daughters to infiltrate the group to bring her home.
Guy Nattiv directed the 2026 drama film, drawing inspiration from his own family's history.
