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
