Women Talking(15)(2022) 104mins

Stay and fight or leave. They will not do nothing.

Following a series of sexual assaults by the men in an isolated Mennonite colony, eight women congregate in a barn to debate their course of action.

Do they forgive the men for years of abuse and cover-up — or do they abandon their community for good?

Stay and fight or leave. They will not do nothing.

From director Sarah Polley and starring Rooney Mara, Claire Foy, Jessie Buckley, Judith Ivey, Ben Whishaw, and Frances McDormand.

REVIEWS

★★★★★ Mark Kermode – The Observer
A stellar ensemble energises Sarah Polley’s timeless parable​

★★★★★ Independent
This meditation on abuse and survival deserves the Best Picture Oscar

★★★★ Empire
Polley shows only the aftermath of the rapes, proving outright that the weight of trauma can be seen and felt without showing the violence itself.
