From writer-director Nia DaCosta comes a provocative, modern reimagining of Henrik Ibsen’s classic play. HEDDA (Tessa Thompson) finds herself torn between the lingering ache of a past love and the quiet suffocation of her present life. Over the course of one charged night, long-repressed desires and hidden tensions erupt—pulling her and everyone around her into a spiral of manipulation, passion and betrayal.
Featuring glorious cinematography from Oscar nominee Sean Bobbitt (12 YEARS A SLAVE), sumptuous production design by Cara Brower (CANDYMAN, US) and a genre-bending score from Oscar winner Hildur Guðnadóttir (JOKER; WOMEN TALKING, CIFF 2022), HEDDA is a beautifully original adaptation.
