Equal parts fantastic and frustrating, Ema soars sky-high but cannot maintain those heights over the course of the film.
A couple deals with the aftermath of an adoption that goes awry as their household falls apart.
Ema is not like any other film that has come out this year so far. Its celebration of female agency is like a fever dream — indescribable and euphoric.
Pablo Larraín’s Ema is certainly the most unpredictable, wild, and unconventional study of a frayed woman at this year’s TIFF.
