Viewing Notes
My number three rated movie of the festival even if the numeric rating I gave it doesn’t bear that out. A great, moody Norwegian werewolf movie with a female protagonist who isn’t trivialized. The tone and cinematography really bear out the sense of isolation, not only for the main character, but for the entire town. I especially liked that the story wasn’t full of exposition, just giving the audience enough back story to ground it without weighing it down.
