November debuted internationally at The 2017 Tribeca Film Festival, where it won Best Cinematography.
Estonia’s official entry to The 90th Academy Awards, the film is set in a 19th century village, where peasant girl Liina longs for the simple boy Hans, but Hans is inexplicably infatuated by a visiting German baroness who possesses all that he longs for. For Liina, winning Hans’ love proves incredibly complicated in this dark, primitive landscape where the personification of The Black Plague, werewolves, knife-legged spirits known as “kratts,” and the devil himself have converged.
November is based on the best-selling novel Rehepapp by Andrus Kivirähk, and opens in New York on February 23 and Los Angeles on March 2.
