One of the most anticipated films of the year has arrived in U.S. theaters. It is Sinners, the new production of Oscar-nominated director Ryan Coogler, the creative mind behind such hits as Black Panther and Creed.
Starring acclaimed actor Michael B. Jordan, this film marks a foray into the genre of psychological suspense with hints of horror, while maintaining the seal of narrative and visual quality that has characterized Coogler’s films.
What is Sinners about?
The story revolves around twin brothers – both played by Michael B. Jordan – who, after a life marked by violence, crime and difficult decisions, decide to return to their hometown in hopes of rebuilding their lives.
However, upon returning, they discover that an even deeper and darker evil awaits them, lurking from the shadows of the past.
The plot explores the boundaries between good and evil, guilt and redemption, in a context that mixes elements of thriller, drama and horror with a strong emotional charge.
One of the film’s central phrases sums up the disturbing premise:
If you keep dancing with the devil, one day he will follow you home
