I've just seen this movie at the Viennese Gartenbaukino. Going into this, I was expecting some sort of throwback mythical horror movie a la The Witch, instead I was surprised by the choices in storytelling and direction. This is definitely not a film for the faint of heart but I applaud the filmmakers for making very bold decisions in their depictions of female depression in a strictly catholic rural setting. This film might feel slow to some audiences but it absolutely pays off in the final third. What makes this movie even more engaging besides historical accuracy and the attention for detail is the fact that it was researched and has a firm historical background. The rural setting intensifies the main character's feeling of isolation and despair and adds emotional heaviness to the viewer's experience. If you have enjoyed tge filmmakers' previous works and are not too squeamish I heavily recommend this movie.
