Movie Preview: An immigrant’s unlikely romance with a yokel new to New York — “Preparation for the Next Life”

Posted on August 2, 2025 by Roger Moore

Romance with a dash of “You’ll be deported” thrown in.

Sebiye Behtiyar stars, with Fred Hechinger as the purehearted hick-from-the-sticks with his own secrets in a film from the director of the Oscar-nominated doc “Minding the Gap,” Bing Liu.

Sept 5, this MGM/Orion pic goes into limited release.
