I was super impressed by this movie. The director manages to create a perfect blend of esthetic eeriness and great suspense. The main character is immediately endearing, and before the main title came on screen I was already curious to see where this would all lead.
The cast is particularly strong. Every man portraying an archetype of the male figure, a different flavor of masculinity. The contrast with the main (and only) female lead made every scene portent with quasi sexual tension, but never crossing the expected lines and keeping the audience on its toes.
The film made me think at times of previous classic Quebecois movies like "La bête lumineuse" and "Gina" - not certain if they were inspirations, but I enjoyed the references nonetheless.
Can't wait to see her next projects!
