Now It's Dark

About This Movie

Now It's Dark has this raw, almost haunting atmosphere that really pulls you in. Ommundsen's direction feels intimate yet expansive, as Lene's quest for closure takes her down a surreal path. You get these dreamlike encounters that blur the line between reality and imagination, lending the film an unsettling quality. The pacing can be a bit meditative, giving you time to absorb the emotional weight of her journey. It’s the performances that stand out too—Lene’s vulnerability is palpable, making her encounters all the more striking. There’s a darkness in the themes of estrangement and self-discovery that lingers long after the credits roll. It’s not exactly your typical drama, but that’s what makes it memorable.
