Released in 2023, The Sovereign is a notable film.

What it’s about. Still proudly flaunting its progressive values, a young independent nation prepares to celebrate an all-purpose holiday called The Sovereign. Despite the declared moral superiority, the little nation is rife with inequality, apathy and a strengthening authoritarian framework. For the 24-hour holiday, citizens are encouraged to share their blessings with the less fortunate. Predictably, the practice at times seems more like performance art rather than a community service. The story revolves around two pregnant cousins, Sila and Marilu, both throwing fundraisers for their babies' birthday funds, ultimately vying for a top donation from their rich Aunt Cara, a self-indulgent playwright. While the cousins duel for the top dollar, we drop in on the different experiences populating this patchwork community and listen in on some familiar challenges.

Who’s in it. The Sovereign stars Dave Adams as Rodolfo (Minister's Proxy).
