Saloum

Saloum    [trailer]

In 2003, a trio of mercenaries escaping a coup in Guinea-Bissau take refuge in a hidden region on the Saloum river of Senegal. But something from beyond the grave awaits them there.

Has lots of elements of a classic western. But what makes it special is the African setting and its landscapes.

I could've done with less of the supernatural horror elements, especially since they take over the film towards the end. But I have to admit that they were visually well done and fitting for the production.

As usual, I feel obliged to point out, you can't carry with one hand a suitcase full of gold bars like that.

Saloum https://bit.ly/3CGMr0D There are a lot of interesting films coming out of Africa right now. Here’s Saloum, not perfect but pretty damn exhilarating for its first half at the very least. It’s an open homage to Tarantino putting colourful characters with unexpected skillsets into tense situations and then watching as the pinball-machine consequences play out. Congolese director Jean Luc Herbulot gives us a fascinating opening shot of a shadowy figure entering what might be a lake with a gun. What are we about to see? A western? A sci-fi movie? A war movie? A revenge drama? There are flavours of most of those in what Herbulot eventually delivers. But first let’s meet the team: a … Read more

Chris: Saloum is a crime / horror film from Senegal, this makes the film unique, and I found it very interesting to watch, about fleeing criminals who end up in an accursed place, Watch: On Subscription Service.

Richie: An interesting multi-genre film about demon-like spirits in Senegal, it needed some more character development, the story was too all-over the place and needed to be tightened up, Watch: When Free.

Four of the best international genre films at TIFF 2021

If you are looking for the most kick-ass and boundary-breaking films on the festival circuit, you can never go wrong with the Toronto International Film Festival. Even outside of its famed Midnight Madness selection, the festival is known for introducing audiences to films outside of their comfort zones. Despite the hybrid online and in-person programming approach, this year’s selection of films proved no different.

Many viewers might have been disappointed that high-profile films such as Dune or Titane were only available for in-person screenings, but this set the perfect stage for international genre movies to make a much-deserved splash for both online and in-person attendees. Four such films, three of which were helmed by first-time directors, were highlights in an already-promising lineup. Here are a few of the most unique and daring movies that caused a stir at TIFF this year.

Saloum

Set against the backdrop of Guinea-Bissau’s 2003 coup d’état in Senegal, director Jean Luc Herbulot spins a twisty tale of folklore and mysticism. A group of mercenaries called the Hyenas (Yann Gael, Roger Sallah, and Mentor Ba) find themselves stranded on the Sine-Saloum Delta. Upon discovering that the land harbors dark secrets, they enlist the help of a mysterious Deaf woman (Evelyne Ily Juhen) to figure out how to leave their new personal Hell. The film maintains a balance between action and horror in an effortlessly stylish way, while the frantic camerawork and impressive digital effects could even make Quentin Tarantino blush.

Mlungu Wam (Good Madam)

This South African horror satire centers around the reunion between young mother Tsidi (Chumisa Cosa) and her mother, a maid named Mavis (Nosipho Mtebe) who cares for the ailing Diane (Jennifer Boraine). Immediately, both Tsidi and the audience know that something is sinister within the Madam’s estate, and a malevolent entity has taken control of Mavis for years. While tensions are appropriately heightened thanks to the eerie cinematography and intense performances, the fact that the film had twelve credited screenwriters shows with its sometimes clumsy dialogue. Nevertheless, it’s a fascinating and inventive look at the lingering effects of Apartheid.

To Kill The Beast

Coming to terms with your sexuality is already hard enough, but what if the threat of a mysterious creature loomed in the background? This is the idea behind Agustina San Martín’s stunning debut feature. To Kill The Beast centers around the coming-of-age of Emilia (Tamara Rocca) who goes to a town on the Argentinian-Brazilian border to look for her missing brother. There, she is thrust into a hunt for a mysterious and seductive man who can shapeshift into animals. San Martín’s direction elevates it from a simple story to an experience that merges sapphic desire, Gothic aesthetics, and creepy imagery.

Zalava

The combination of science-based skepticism and religious faith go hand-in-hand in Arsalan Amini’s debut feature Zalava. When a series of demonic encounters terrorizes a village in Kurdistan, doubting officer Masoud (Navid Pourfaraj) finds himself tested by beloved but mysterious exorcist Amardan (Pouria Rahimi Sam). As anxieties and curiosities heighten, both men’s lives are put into jeopardy. Thanks to the compositions by Ramin Kousha and wonderful camerawork by Mohammad Rasouli, a persistent eeriness haunts the entire film, affecting you as if you too are involved in the unfolding events. While the story does end up meandering in its second part, its final act provides the dark culmination you’ll be waiting for.

Fantastic Fest Review: 'Saloum' is a wild, genre-twisting ride from start to finish

#FantasticFest Review: 'Saloum' is a wild, genre-twisting ride from start to finish @fantasticfest #Saloum #VIFF2021

A trio of inseparable brothers in arms, one with second sight, one with a temper, and one with a hidden past, get stranded in an unfamiliar place. An effective setup for any film, but Saloum adds folklore and the unspeakable atrocities of Africa’s recent past to the mix to make something unique. (more…)
