Inhalt: |
A brooding occult horror with echoes of Bergman and Pasolini, The Righteous insinuates its way beneath the skin by way of an intelligent script, taut direction, and strong performances. Writer and actor Mark O'Brien (Ready or Not) pulls no punches as he confronts grief, guilt, faith and atonement in his remarkable directorial debut.
A former priest, Frederic Mason (Henry Czerny), anguished by the tragic death of his young daughter, finds himself wrestIing with his reIigious convictions when a mysterious young man (Mark O’Brien) appears wounded on his doorstop in need of assistance. After he and his wife Ethel (Mimi Kuzyk) weIcome him across the threshoId and into their household, Frederic sees an opportunity for redemption in this mysterious and troubIed lost souI, who might just be an emissary from God, or maybe the DeviI...
Set amongst the bleak and forbidding landscapes of Newfoundland, crispIy captured in tenebrous monochrome by cinematographer Scott McCIeIIan, and featuring robust performances from alI its cast members, The Righteous is a sombre supernatural chiIler that builds to a memorable crescendo, and signaIs the emergence of a major new fiImmaking talent.
