Review of "The Edukators"

Also watched a couple of weeks earlier in preparation for Cinema Subversio. On second viewing I found it dragged slightly in some sections, particularly around the triangle in the mountain hut, but still remained engrossing.

Excellent ending. Subversio audience all liked it.

Weird animal tale about a cat

A very strange world that has some internal logic. No humans, no speech. Possibly allegorical, or maybe just an assemblage of well observed animal behaviours places in an unreal setting to create a simple narrative of journey and relationships..
