Resurrection a fost unul dintre hiturile Festivalul de Film Sundance din acest an, un thriller psihologic/ horror scris si regizat de Andrew Semans, cu Rebecca Hall, Tim Roth, Grace Kaufman, Michael Esper, Angela Wong Carbone, Josh Drennen, Rosemary Howard si Winsome Brown in distributie.

Filmul spune povestea lui Margaret (Rebecca Hall), a carei existenta perfect pusa la punct este complet data peste cap de aparitia unui barbat din trecutul ei. Detalii despre relatia lor intunecata incep sa iasa la iveala, iar viata ei nu va mai fi niciodata la fel.

Resurrection este cel de-al doilea film al cineastului Andrew Semans, care a facut furori la Tribeca cu filmul sau de debut, Nancy, Please, in 2012. Despre prezentul horror, David Ehrlich de la IndieWire a declarat ca “at the risk of overstating the extent to which ‘Resurrection’ transcends the guilty pleasures of a typical thriller — or suggesting that its subdued direction is really a galaxy brain meta-commentary on the limits of control — Semans’ film stands out for how purposefully it seems to walk the line between schlocky crap and serious cinema. A more rigid or hyper-stylized movie would have worked against Margaret’s powerlessness, while a sloppier one would have distracted from the desperation of her grip. In art, as in our own minds, there is only so much that is in our ability to determine; in ‘Resurrection,’ the need for absolute control is nothing short of a death trap”.

Resurrection va avea premiera pe 5 august 2022.
