Dancer Ema (Mariana Di Girolamo) and choreographer Gastón (Gael García Bernal) are a married couple and artistic free spirits in an experimental dance troupe whose lives are thrown into chaos after a shocking incident.
As her family life and marriage crumble, Ema embarks upon an odyssey of liberation and self-discovery as she dances and seduces her way into a daring new life. From boundary-pushing Chilean filmmaker Pablo Larraín (JACKIE / NERUDA), EMA is an incendiary, visually-stunning portrait of an unforgettable heroine’s artistic temperament set at the combustible crossroads of art, desire and the societal pressure to conform.
