It Follows It Follows

David Robert Mitchell / USA / 2014 / 100 min / English

Replete with suspense, unexpected twists and allusions to the classical horror films, It Follows is also a metaphor for the hidden dangers and fears that young people face during their first sexual experiences.

For 19-year-old Jay, autumn should be about school, boys and weekends out at the lake. But after a seemingly innocent sexual encounter, she finds herself plagued by strange visions and the inescapable sense that someone, or something, is following her. Faced with this burden, Jay and her teenage friends must find a way to escape the horrors that seem to be only a few steps behind.

»How I see it, and how I tried to convey it in It Follows, sex is the way the haunting starts but it's also the way to survive as well. So it's not as simple as using sex to honour or reference those older horror films, which, don't get me wrong, I grew up watching and love. In my film, sex is the only way you could survive, and that felt like something new. I've never seen that before in a horror film.« (David Robert Mitchell)

Ukrainian intelligence services have intercepted thousands of phone calls Russian soldiers made from the battlefield in Ukraine to their families and friends in Russia, painting a stark picture of the cruelty of war in a dizzying emotional tension. Juxtaposed with images of the destruction caused by the invasion, the voices of the Russian soldiers – ranging from being filled with heroic illusions to complete disappointment and loss of reason, from looting to committing more horrible war crimes, from propaganda to doubt and disillusionment – expose the whole scope of the dehumanizing power.
