NINA OF THE WOODS
Aspiring actress, Nina Noon, agrees to lend her “local authenticity” to a supernatural reality show. She and the cynical documentary crew follow an enigmatic wilderness guide on an unexplainable adventure into Mother Nature’s Abyss. We might call it a Bigfoot version of The Blair Witch Project crossed with a Tarkovsky film...which sounds like a disaster waiting to happen...but writer/director Charlie Griak’s masterful handing of a unique and ever-shifting tone makes this into a beautifully meditative horror thriller. www.ninaofthewoods.com
Charlie Griak is an independent filmmaker and visual artist based in Minneapolis, MN. He has written, directed and produced two feature films and also works as a freelance illustrator and animator. "The Center", his live-action directorial debut, was executive produced and presented by Jonathan Demme. www.charliegriak.com
