Millhaven

About This Movie

Millhaven is this intriguing animated piece that dives deep into themes of mortality and life's dance, if you will. The story centers on Loretta, a 15-year-old with a stark awareness of life's fragility. The animation style, while not flashy, really adds to the somber yet poetic atmosphere. You can feel the weight of Nick Cave's ballad through Katarzyna Groniec's bold performance, which brings a haunting quality to the narrative. It’s a unique take on a dark subject that makes you ponder, and the pacing holds you in its grip. It’s definitely not your typical animation – there's this rawness that feels both unsettling and thought-provoking, which is what sets it apart.
