A Sad and Beautiful World is in theaters now, and it's Lebanon's official selection for the 98th Academy Awards.

This is a film that has been winning wherever it plays. The Giornate Degli Autori Audience Award at the 82nd Venice Film Festival. The Aurora Award at Tromso. Best Screenplay at the Red Sea International Film Festival. Best Picture at the Asian World Film Festival. It holds a 100% Fresh score on Rotten Tomatoes, and every one of those honors was earned the hard way, film by film, festival by festival.

Spanning three decades of love, heartbreak, and hope, it follows childhood sweethearts Nino and Yasmina as they find their way back to each other against a Lebanon that never stops changing. Told entirely in Arabic, directed by Cyril Aris, and cut by Nat Sanders, the editor behind Moonlight, this is craft and heart in equal measure.

Giant Leap Media is proud to have supported this film, and this opening weekend matters. Every ticket is a vote for the kind of cinema that takes risks and tells the truth.

May the 4th be with you. But today, Daisy Ridley trades the galaxy far, far away for something far closer to home.

If you know her as Rey, you owe it to yourself to see what she does in We Bury the Dead. A grief-stricken woman in post-catastrophe Tasmania, searching for her missing husband. It sounds like a zombie thriller. It plays like something much harder to shake.

Written and directed by Zak Hilditch, Executive Produced by Giant Leap Media. Certified Fresh on Rotten Tomatoes. Critics are calling it the best work of her career.

It arrives on Hulu on May 8.

This isn't the zombie film you think it is.

We Bury the Dead is set in a post-catastrophe Tasmania, following a grief-stricken woman who joins a military body-retrieval unit searching for her missing husband. On paper, it's a genre film. On screen, it's something quieter and more devastating than that.

IndieWire's Katie Rife put it well: "The craft of the movie is top-notch, with compelling performances, urgent pacing, and gorgeous cinematography." Critics agree. The film sits at 88% on Rotten Tomatoes, with the consensus singling out Daisy Ridley's performance as the emotional core of the whole thing. Several outlets are calling it a career best.

Audiences showed up too. We Bury the Dead opened to $3 million across 1,117 screens in North America, the biggest opening weekend in Vertical Entertainment's history. That's not nothing for an intimate, director-led genre film.

Written and directed by Zak Hilditch, the film was supported by Giant Leap Media. We're proud to have been part of it.
