Described as a 'Satay Western', Indonesian director Mouly Surya's 'Marlina the Murderer in Four Acts' is a female-driven journey of vengeance and justice.

When bandits turn up at the home of young widow Marlina intending to help themselves to both her and her possessions, they don’t count on her fighting back. By turns revisionist spaghetti western and scorching revenge narrative, this hugely accomplished and visually stunning third feature by Mouly Surya is powered by a righteous female fury. Undoubtedly the best Indonesian feminist Western you’ll see this year.

Filmmaker Mouly Surya is expected to attend and participate in a post-screening Q&A.
