Minh Vũ |

The movie Sinners is at the center of attention this year when it set a record with 16 Oscar nominations, becoming the film with the most nominations in history.

The movie "Sinners" is a film mixing horror, crime and surnature elements directed by Ryan Coogler.

In the film, star Michael B. Jordan plays twin brothers, returning to their hometown in the Southern United States in the 1930s with the hope of rebuilding their lives by opening a blues club.

However, the journey to find redemption is quickly drawn into dangerous supernatural forces and complex social conflicts, making the boundary between good and evil increasingly blurred.

The work attracted great attention in this year's awards season when it received 16 nominations at the Oscars, becoming the film with the most nominations in the history of this prestigious film award.

Surpassing this historical milestone makes "Sinners" the focus of attention in the global film industry, and is expected to create an explosive Oscar season when the awards ceremony takes place.
