The Midnight Swim (2014)

The Midnight Swim: Directed by Sarah Adina Smith. With Lindsay Burdge, Jennifer Lafleur, Aleksa Palladino, Beth Grant. Spirit Lake is unusually deep. No diver has ever managed to find the bottom, though many have tried. When Dr. Amelia Brooks disappears during a deep-water dive, her three daughters travel home to settle her affairs. They find themselves unable to let go of their mother and become drawn into the mysteries of the lake.

“u0026quot;The Midnight Swimu0026quot; is a mysterious, artful exploration of sisterhood, family, and mental illness. Itu0026#39;s the kind of film that takes you on a mysterious journey that you really want to go on, and that you think about for weeks afterward. I was lucky enough to see this at the Berkshire International Film Festival and now it is playing at theaters around the United States. The performances by the actors, in particular by Jennifer Lafleur (but they are all great) are stand-out. The directing is assured and clear and quite clearly done by someone with the eye of an artist. The cinematography is also beautiful and magical and pulls you into the story. If this film comes to your town, I highly recommend you see it on the big screen. Otherwise, look out for it on VOD!”
