Dir. Larry Fessenden US 2002 Wendigo begins as a young family attempts to escape their hectic city lives for a rejuvenating weekend trip in the country. As they are driving on the snowy winter roads a fluke accident sets off a chain of events that alters their lives forever. The accident conjures up the ferocious spirit of the Wendigo, a Native American Myth made manifest by the young son, Miles' imagination. With stark simplicity - the noises and shadows of an unfamiliar house, creepy gun toting local rednecks, an arbitrary tragedy - the film creates an eerie fable and draws us into the potent imagination of Miles.Writer/director/editor Larry Fessenden (Habit, No Telling) crafts a kaleidoscope of sounds and images, puppetry and cinema tricks to make a film-poem about a child losing his innocence. Wendigo explores the power of myth, the relativity of revenge and the perpetuation of aggression over time. With Patricia Clarkson, Jake Weber and Erik Per Sullivan (Dewey from Malcolm in the Middle). (90m) |
