North Went Mad is a curious piece, really. It weaves this bleak tapestry around the murder of a young girl named Selma, whose lifeless body becomes a vessel for guilt among those who touch it. The pacing is a bit erratic, almost disorienting, which fits the chaotic situation perfectly. The atmosphere is thick with tension, as we see people grappling with their own conscience while Selma's mother is preoccupied with sewing a prom dress, creating a stark contrast. You get this haunting feel of innocence lost, and the practical effects, while not groundbreaking, serve the narrative well. The performances have a raw authenticity to them, which really draws you into the storyās unsettling depths.
