Preorder scheduled for release on February 23, 2027

Atom Egoyan pieces together the shards of a tragedy that has left a community shattered in this ethereal, emotionally arresting film, an Oscar-nominated adaptation of the Russell Banks novel. Drifting between past and present, The Sweet Hereafter offers an intimate panorama of a snowbound Canadian town reckoning with the fallout of a school-bus crash that claimed the lives of fourteen children—a fresh wound that’s further inflamed when a big-city lawyer, who is contending with his own personal tragedy, arrives to assemble a lawsuit on behalf of the victims’ families. Achieving an almost incantatory intensity through the mesmerizing performances of an ensemble cast led by Ian Holm and Sarah Polley, this winner of the Grand Prix at the Cannes Film Festival is a devastatingly clear-eyed vision of the ways in which trauma can ripple through our lives.
