About This Movie

Strange Forest is a somber exploration of family dynamics under pressure. The tone is heavy, almost suffocating, as the parents grapple with their son's addiction and their own failings. The pacing feels deliberate, each scene weighed down by unspoken tension and regret. It's interesting how the film shifts from the parents’ blame game to a deeper introspection about responsibility. Performances are raw, capturing the anguish and desperation of a family on the brink. The minimalistic approach to practical effects keeps the focus on the emotional turmoil, which makes it distinctive. You can really feel the weight of their choices as they navigate through the dark landscape of addiction and loss.
