Rave On

By Jeffrey M. Anderson

A father and his young son wander through the deserts of Morocco, where pierced and tattooed ravers set up massive speakers and prepare to dance the nights and days away. The father is looking for his missing daughter, showing flyers to young people who don't recognize her. A group of ravers seems to take pity on him, and, after trying to discourage him from continuing his search, decides to help him. To say anything after that would be a disservice to this harrowing movie, in which whatever you think is going to happen, definitely does not happen. It is a disquieting experience, effectively straddling joy and release with loss and grief. It won't be easy to forget.
