Hedda

Movie Summary: Hedda Gabler finds herself torn between the lingering ache of a past love and the quiet suffocation of her present life. Over the course of one charged night, long-repressed desires and hidden tensions erupt—pulling her and everyone around her into a spiral of manipulation, passion, and betrayal.

Queer Film LA Says: Nia DaCosta re-imagines Ibsen's classic play -- which scandalized the 19th century world with its depiction of a woman's conflict between passion and material stability -- casting bi actress Tessa Thompson, placing it in the 1950s, and making the central love triangle Queer.
