The Confirmation - DVD

The Confirmation [BLU-RAY] Released 2016 product/publication from Lions Gate

Kerry Washington and Wendell Pierce star in this riveting film about the explosive 1991 Clarence Thomas Supreme Court nomination hearings. Greg Kinnear co-stars.

One of international cinema's most fearless and provocative filmmakers, Nadav Lapid has long been an outspoken critic of his birth country's government policies, channeling a lifetime of fury and frustration into vital films like Synonyms and Ahed's Knee that brim with righteous anger, spite, and shame. In Yes, Lapid once again takes vigorous critical aim at the Israeli government with a new approach submission. In the days following October 7, Y., a jazz musician, and his wife Yasmin, a dancer, resolve to say yes to everything. Y. and Yasmin sell their bodies and souls to the highest bidder, surrendering themselves and their art to Israel's social, political and military elite. Soon, Y. is entrusted with a mission of the utmost importance to compose the music for a rousing, ruthless new national anthem. Feverishly whirling between moments of satire, sincerity, and complete submission, Yes is a visceral, blistering indictment of modern Israel, and an essential addition to post-October 7 cinema.
