A film student is drawn into a performance artist’s shadowy world in Alena Lodkina’s MIFF Premiere Fund–supported follow-up to the acclaimed
Strange Colours (MIFF 2018).
After a few chance encounters, introverted Eva (Nathalie Morris, Bump) becomes fast friends with inscrutable but magnetic Mia. But as they become ever more entwined, so does the
supernatural begin to entangle with the everyday, revealing the cracks between memory and make-believe, reality and fantasy.
All the while, Eva seeks to better understand her friend – and her own self – leading her deeper into the surreal rabbit hole that is
Mia’s life. Lodkina’s MIFF Premiere Fund–supported sophomore feature is a masterfully zany distillation of twentysomething drift and the inherent mystique of youth and other people.
