The Forest of the Lost Souls
Vancity Theatre, 1181 Seymour, VancouverTwo strangers wrestling with their respective suicidal tendencies stumble across one another in a forest reserved for those looking to end it all. Initially content poking sardonic fun at the older man’s (Jorge Mota) modus operandi, the young woman (Daniela Love) soon puts in motion a far more sinister game. To say any more about José Pedro Lopes’ gorgeously shot, precisely orchestrated waking nightmare would ruin the macabre fun. Rest assured, this is an art house thriller that will haunt you for a spell.
