Love won’t stay buried…
Set to have its World Premiere at the Fantasia Film Festival in Montreal next month is the dreamy DIY supernatural thriller The Deeper You Dig, which the fest reveals was a family affair – the movie was written, directed, and produced by John Adams, Toby Poser, and their daughter, Zelda. They also star, shoot, and compose the film’s score!
In the film, the line between the living and the dead collapses for a mother, daughter, and stranger in the aftermath of a roadside accident.
“The intimacy of the production is felt in the immediacy of the performances and the depth of ideas,” writes the fest’s guide. “This journey into the underworld crawls under your skin and draws you into your deepest, darkest nightmares.”
This indie looks one of the dark horses of this year’s Fantasia.
