Description
Summary:A beautiful young woman named Sascha discovers her dream life of recklessness and fun comes at a price when she is welcomed into the "family" of her drug-lord-boyfriend at his holiday villa on the Turkish Riviera. Physical and psychological violence are a way of life in this volatile household, but when Sascha seeks the attention of another man, the velvet veneer is stripped bare: is it possible for her to leave this life of luxury and violence behind? Nominated for the Grand Jury Prize for World Cinema at the **Sundance Film Festival.** *"Holiday" refuses to cast judgment on its protagonist with its stark cinematography and long takes, letting lead Victoria Carmen Sonne's subtle performance shine in this crime drama about imbalances of power."--Kimber Myers, **The Los Angeles Times***
