Premiering in the Un Certain Regard section at the Cannes Film Festival , THE KINGDOM is a powerful film that is a rich and vital experience – a must see drama embodied by fierce, tender love and for us, one of the best films in the Festival.
Set in Corsica, 1995 Lesia (the excellent Ghjuvanna Benedetti) is desperate for a normal teenage life. However, amidst the island's gang politics, she’s not just the daughter of notorious mafioso – she’s a potential target.
