Hedda at TIFF: Tessa Thompson Lights the Fuse in DaCosta’s Wild Ibsen Remix
from Stories in Motion · host D & J
Our 25th film at TIFF 2025 might be the most explosive yet. Nia DaCosta’s Hedda is a bold, seductive, and chaotic reinvention of Ibsen’s classic, with Tessa Thompson delivering a career-best performance as the ultimate party puppetmaster. We break down the glamor, the rage, the queerness, and the guns (yes, those guns). Things get messy—in the best way.
