This horror movie was interesting, ambitious and smart.
The basic idea of a young girls's struggle to have acceptance and love from her demanding mother was extremely well made. The leading actress, young Siiri Solalinna does a perfect job. There is something really sinister in the suburb of white immaculate houses surrounded by a dark Finnish forest.
The movie is quite intellectual which makes the film to be rather unattached from the emotional side of the audience. I mean that I did not really care on emotional level what happens but was curious about the plot development the whole time. Accordingly, the ending is satisfactory on intellectual level but not on emotional level.
This is one of the first high-quality horror movies ever made in Finland. I was quite delighted about the freshness of the film. I hope that this is a good start for others to follow. It is always interesting when something new emerges in the film scene here. Kudos to the whole team who made this nice horror film!
