The Lost

A nice indie that starts slow (that's not a negative) but really gets going in the second act. Highly recommended!! If you are looking for something to watch, and to support independent filmmakers, this is worth a watch.

And, even though I would occasionally skip forward a bit, found the movie touching. It's all about finding your purpose and dealing with big time emotions of despair and melancholy. Then there is the technique of having everything in the story connect someway, somehow. And the acting in my humble opinion was superb - 6.5.

This is a power movie about the loss of a child.

It will not be an easy watch especially for parents, as it portrays trauma quite accurately.

If you are in the mood for a heavy hitter, give this one a go.

A very dark tale that effectively takes the conventions of the revenge thriller genre and molds them in a unique way. These elements culminate in a bold and emotional study of grieve and the devastating actions it can lead too. Well worth your time!

The story is raw and complex, complemented by a great performance from the lead actress. The actors carried the film from beginning to end and the directing really immersed me in the atmosphere of the film. The editing tells the story effectively, as well. Overall, it's a deeper story and if you're wanting to experience a bold, original portrait of loss and a new journey, this might be the film for you.
