Lilith

In the beginning, God created man. Male and Female, he created them. Both came from the same dust. They were separate, different, but Equal. But Adam doesn't see it that way. When Lilith demands sexual equality, Adam answers with rape. Lilith speaks the unspeakable name and becomes so powerful that she literally flies away. God punishes her and creates Eve from Adam's rib to be his obedient wife. Lilith pays a high price for her defiance, but her revenge will be severe.

Directed by Stephan Brenninkmeijer, Lilith leans on a strong ensemble — Nienke Brinkhuis, Pepijn van Halderen, Chantal Demming — 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 2019.
