Father Mother Sister Brother release date in U.S.: When and how to watch Jim Jarmusch's movie that wins Venice Film Festival's top prize?

"Father Mother Sister Brother" by veteran American independent director Jim Jarmusch won the top Golden Lion prize for best film at the Venice Film Festival on Saturday. The film made its debut at the film festival. The movie, starring Cate Blanchett, Adam Driver and Tom Waits, explores dysfunctional families through three separate stories set in upstate New York, Dublin and Paris. The film details three stories of three families, focusing on adult siblings and their parents.

Each story in "Father Mother Sister Brother," which Jarmusch also wrote, dramatizes a different relationship: a brother (Adam Driver) and sister (Mayim Bialik) who visit their aging father (Tom Waits); two sisters (Cate Blanchett and Vicky Krieps), also visiting their novelist mother (Charlotte Rampling); and twins (Indya Moore and Luka Sabbat) dealing with their late parents' apartment.

"Father Mother Sister Brother" film is scheduled to be released by Mubi in the U.S. on December 24.

The 21 features in the competition frequently reflected real-world tensions, including "The Voice of Hind Rajab," Kaouther Ben Hania's docudrama about a Palestinian girl in a car under fire by the Israeli military, and the emergency phone dispatchers trying to save her. The well-received film, which uses real recordings of the emergency calls, won the Silver Lion Grand Jury Prize.

The Silver Lion for best director was given to Benny Safdie for "The Smashing Machine," a portrait of MMA champion Mark Kerr (Dwayne Johnson). The Special Jury Prize was awarded to "Below the Clouds," a black-and-white look at Naples and Mount Vesuvius, directed by Gianfranco Rosi, one of the few documentarians to have won the Golden Lion.

The Volpi Cup for best actor went to Toni Servillo for his role as the Italian president in "La Grazia," the latest of his collaborations with Sorrentino. The award for best actress was given to Xin Zhilei, who plays a woman reconnected with a former lover in Cai Shangjun's "The Sun Rises on Us All." Luna Wedler won the Marcello Mastroianni Award for outstanding emerging actor for her performance in Ildiko Enyedi's "Silent Friend."

The best screenplay prize went to the director, Valérie Donzelli, and her co-writer, Gilles Marchand, for "At Work," about a photographer turned writer struggling to stay afloat.

This year's edition continued the festival's run of starry casts, including Julia Roberts, Emma Stone, Oscar Isaac, George Clooney, Colman Domingo, Dwayne Johnson, Willem Dafoe, Chloë Sevigny, Jude Law, Amanda Seyfried, Andrew Garfield, Ayo Edebiri, Jesse Plemons, Emily Blunt, Lee Byung-hun and Jacob Elordi.
