Lukas Feigelfeld’s arty folk-horror debut is a grim fairy tale about women shunned and vilified as witches during Europe’s Dark Ages. The film was awarded Best Picture in the “Next Wave” Features category at Fantastic Fest 2017 and has toured the international festival circuit, including BFI London Film Festival 2017, Brooklyn Horror Film Festival 2017, Music Box Theatre’s Cinepocalypse 2017, and Morbido Fest 2017, and now comes to the ACF London as part of our Horror Season.

In 2019 the ACFs Cine Club will try to investigate the relationship of Austrian cinema and genre. We begin with a decent into the darker spheres of horror, obsession and suspense. A selection of films spanning the silent era to the present day will showcase varied approaches to this genre. Throughout the year and future programs we will embark on other genres and shall try to establish an understanding of the common tropes and signs found throughout cinema history which make it a truly universal and international language understood by all humans who after all share similar fears and desires.
