A spooky, entrancing trip to the obscurer backwaters of Tyrol, Pech’s hypnotically oblique drama observes unsettling goings-on in a near-deserted village as seen through the eyes of a 14-year-old protagonist. An environment shared with animal and avian "neighbors," this place becomes—via confident directorial bravura—the backdrop for a coming-of-age tale of surprisingly fresh flavor as young Margarita learns to observe and interpret her world.
