Capernaum (Arabic: کفرناحوم), also known as Capharnaüm, is a 2018 Lebanese drama film written and directed by Nadine Labaki. It was selected to compete for the Palme d'Or at the 2018 Cannes Film Festival,[4][5] where it won the Jury Prize.[6][7] The film received a 15-minute standing ovation following its premiere at Cannes on 17 May 2018.[8]
Sony Pictures Classics, which had previously distributed Labaki's Where Do We Go Now?, bought North American and Latin American distribution rights for the film, while Wild Bunch retained the international rights.[9]
Capernaum has a 74% approval rating based on reviews by 27 critics on Rotten Tomatoes.[10]. Upon its release in France, Capernaum was praised by the audience and scored 4.5/5 stars on Allocine based on more than 1250 reviews.[11] Variety's Jay Weissberg judged Capernaum to represent a substantial improvement in Labaki's direction, bringing "intelligence and heart" to its issue.[12] The Hollywood Reporter critic Leslie Felperin called it an effective melodrama.[13]OnVulture.com, Emily Yoshida called Zain Al Rafea "a startling, unforgettable presence". Yoshida also interpreted it as "one of the most forcefully pro-choice films I’ve ever seen", though abortion is not mentioned.[14]
A.A. Dowd wrote a mixed review on The A.V. Club, calling it a "sadness pile that confuses nonstop hardship for drama, begging for our tears at every moment".[15] IndieWire critic David Ehrlich also wrote a mixed review, calling it "an astonishing work of social-realism that’s diluted (and ultimately defeated) by an array of severe miscalculations".[16]
The film was selected as the Lebanese entry for Best Foreign Language Film at the 91st Academy Awards.[17][18]
