Both lonely for different reasons, ALI (Adeel Akhtar) and AVA (Claire Rushbrook) meet through their shared affection for SOFIA (6), the child of ALI’s Slovakian tenants, whom AVA teaches. ALI finds comfort in AVA’s warmth and kindness and AVA finds ALI’s complexity and humour irresistible. Over a lunar month, sparks fly and a deep connection begins to grow. However, the legacy of AVA’s past relationship and ALI’s emotional turmoil at the breakdown of his marriage begins to overshadow their newfound passion.
Written and directed by BAFTA-nominated Clio Barnard (The Selfish Giant), ALI & AVA premiered at the 2021 Cannes Film Festival Directors’ Fortnight and received multiple British Independent Film Award (BIFA) and BAFTA nominations, going on to win two BIFA’s including Best Actor for Adeel Akhtar.
