HUMANIST VAMPIRE SEEKING CONSENTING SUICIDAL PERSON
Directed by Ariane Louis-Seize | 92 min | Canada
Sasha is a young vampire with a serious problem: she's too sensitive to kill! When her exasperated parents cut off her blood supply, Sasha's life is in jeopardy. Luckily, she meets Paul, a lonely teenager with suicidal tendencies who is willing to give his life to save hers. But their friendly agreement soon becomes a nocturnal quest to fulfill Paul's last wishes before day breaks.
A 2023 festival darling, this hilariously deadpan Made-in-Quebec vampire coming-of-age tale is quite unlike anything you've seen before - a mix of teen angst, family drama, wry comedy, and moments of pure horror. More What We Do in the Shadows than Twilight, co-writer/director Ariane Louis-Seize has delivered an utterly charming and inventive feature film debut.
