Synopsis
After my first attempt to screen a film in the vampire genre, Let the Right One In, produced precisely zero ticket sales, I was trepidacious about putting this on. However, it’s essentially a love story, very funny in places and a completely fresh take, as the title would suggest.
It follows Sasha, a young vampire who doesn’t want to kill and her meeting with Paul, a disillusioned boy who would rather not live. Their unconventional bond explores themes of mortality, loneliness, and the search for meaning in life, all underscored by quirky humour and poignant moments.
I watched it twice in four days and immediately wanted others to see it. Touching, funny and unique.
