Synopsis

Our take

Blanketed in the hushed glow of twilight, this graceful tale of American itineracy triumphed on Oscar® night, winning Best Picture, Best Director, and—for the luminous Frances McDormand—Best Actress. The transcendent third feature from Chloé Zhao, Nomadland sparkles with warmth, empathy and humanity.
