Dry Guerlédan

About This Movie

So, 'Dry Guerlédan' is this fascinating little piece from '85, right? It’s an experimental fantasy that really captures the eeriness of the submerged valley. Catherine Ferlandin and Corinne Lépine immerse you in this surreal atmosphere. The pacing is strange—sometimes lingering on the quiet, almost haunting moments, while at other times it kind of rushes through. The practical effects, while maybe not up to modern standards, have this raw charm that enhances the film’s dreamlike quality. The themes of loss and memory are palpable, especially with the lake being so central to the narrative. It’s not for everyone, but it’s a unique viewing experience that leaves you thinking, you know?

Experimental narrative style that challenges conventions.Interesting use of natural landscapes as a character.Fascinating commentary on memory and loss.
