About Leviathan Cycle, Episode 5: Ismael
Our protagonists are taken captive aboard a gigantic cargo ship, whose megalomaniacal captain Ismael entertains biblical pretensions. Ben is made to ‘pay his passage’, while a ghostly Yasmine stalks the empty corridors of the ship. Whales and whaling become a key subject – interrogating colonial and indigenous politics in the process.
Directed by Shezad Dawood, Leviathan Cycle, Episode 5: Ismael leans on a strong ensemble — Houda Echouafni, Zed Josef, Jennifer Lim — 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 screen titles of 2020.
