Samuel Van Grinsven

Jack (Dacre Montgomery) travels to New Zealand to attend the funeral of his estranged mother, Elizabeth. There, he meets her grieving widow, Jill (Vicky Krieps). Far from the playful compounds of nursery rhymes, Grinsven’s Jack-and-Jill become participants in a sinister nocturnal dance as they are each possessed by Elizabeth’s spirit. More about the living than the dead, this restrained and haunting sophomore film is a visual theatre of cinematic chiaroscuro (shot by cinematographer Tyson Perkins) and has been deemed the ‘dark cousin’ of Andrew Haigh’s All Of Us Strangers.
