A/Way

After suffering a profound loss, travel journalist Anna sets out to Martinique on a work trip meant only to further deflect her untended grief. While profiling locals for the piece, she is met with unexpected openness that sparks an honest reflection of her own life. Blending the lines between documentary and narrative, A/way focuses on the accomplishments of the people Anna profiles in Martinique, which builds on Anna’s own journey in accompaniment, pushing her to examine her own path forward. Is this all there is, or is there another way?

Directed by Derek Shane Garcia, A/Way leans on a strong ensemble — Rosie McDonald, Mckenzie Salvatierra-Custin, Eva Dorrepaal — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2024.
