Vampire humaniste cherche suicidaire consentant
by Ariane Louis-Seize
with Montpetit, Felix-Antoine Bénard, Steve Laplante, Sophie Cadieux, Noémie O'Farrell, Marie Brassard

(2023, Canada, 92')

A young, reluctant vampire woman lurches at the idea of killing people, even when it comes down to her own survival. Sasha is starving herself to death, and her exhausted parents cut all funding. Coming to her aid is Paul, a depressed, suicidal young man that offers himself to Sasha as food. The deal is done, all there is to do now is for Paul to make his last wishes come true before sunrise, a mission that will take the two into a night epic that glitters with hope. French-Canadian director Arian Louis-Seize’s debut film is part genre film, part bildungsroman, part dark comedy, and does a great job in exorcising our primal fear.
