Mountains: Monica Sorelle’s quiet epic of Caribbean resilience

To celebrate the UK premiere of Mountains, the debut feature from Haitian-American filmmaker Monica Sorelle, a review competition was held in collaboration with the BFI LFF Critics Mentorship alumni. The initiative aimed to amplify fresh, young voices and spotlight the powerful stories featured in the season curated by Rógan Graham. The winning submission by Ivie Uzebu offers a vibrant and insightful take on Sorelle's film.
