Belongings

About This Movie

Belongings is a fascinating dive into the psyche of a Penobscot Nation author as he revisits a childhood haunted by the supernatural. The documentary meanders through his eerie experiences in a house that seems steeped in sorrow and the uncanny. The pacing feels reflective, allowing the viewer to absorb the oddities—ghostly smells and unexplained knocks in the walls—that punctuate his memories. There's an intriguing exploration of fear surrounding spirits and the afterlife, which resonates deeply. The practical effects are minimal but effective, relying on atmosphere rather than spectacle. It’s not just about scares; it engages with cultural themes and personal grief in a way that lingers long after the credits roll.
