A new trailer has been released for the wild and edgy romantic drama Anora. The film centers on a young sex worker from Brooklyn, who gets her chance at a Cinderella story when she meets and impulsively marries the son of an oligarch.
The synopsis reads: “Ani (Mikey Madison) is a young Uzbek-American stripper from Brighton Beach, a Russophone enclave in New York City. As she is somewhat conversant in Russian, her boss at the strip club fixes her up with a Russian-speaking client.
