Description
Julia Roberts plays the cool, seemingly self-assured Alma Olsson, a philosophy professor at Yale. Her comfortable life is turned upside down when a top student accuses Alma’s colleague and friend Hank (Andrew Garfield) of assault. The campus becomes a minefield of cancel culture and identity politics, while Alma is also forced to confront some demons from her past.
Luca Guadagnino (Call Me by Your Name, Challengers) delivers with After the Hunt a layered psychological thriller full of intrigue and intellectual sparring, in which nothing is black and white and every truth remains open to dispute. Supported by a stellar cast and a gripping score by Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross, this is a film that will continue to spark debate.
