Hideaways
Merlet Agnès
Ireland, 2011, 95', Swiss Premiere
Each of the Furlongs has a supernatural gift. But with a destructive power, James’s is rather a curse. Rejected by his own kind, he lives secluded in the woods where he’ll eventually find love and redemption... Taking place in a contemporary, but fantastic Ireland, Hideaways recalls Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein and constitutes a modern fairy tale that is at times somber and cruel and at others romantic and refreshing.
