Lavender, directed by Ed Gass-Donnelly, is a slow-burning blend of drama and thriller that delves into the murky waters of memory and perception. The film's tone is thick with unease, as we follow a photographer grappling with her fading memories, a struggle that many can relate to in a way. The pacing is deliberate, allowing the tension to build gradually, which complements the film's darker themes nicely. The practical effects, though not overused, add a layer of authenticity that enhances the eerie atmosphere.

It’s an interesting exploration of how the past can haunt the present, and there’s something unique about its visual storytelling.
