Our take

Never one to make the same movie twice, director Denis Côté surprised us with this spectral ensemble drama of rural small town Quebec, shot on 16mm. By turns eerie and somber—and not without dashes of droll humor—Côté conjures an isolated community’s uncertainty as the past comes back to haunt them.
