The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

It was really fun watching Vincent Toujas' Noct at this year's Fantafestival in Rome. Wow, what an atmosphere. Already a winner of the Macabre Faire Film and in the official selection of many genre festivals, Noct starts from the predicament of an insomniac where the borderline between what is real and what is part of the protagonist's hallucination gets more blurred at every minute. Powerfully directed, and starring the versatile and convincing Thomas Barraud, Noct was one of the best shorts I've seen at the Fantafestival and one of the few that really scared me. Perhaps it's the effective premise based on the devastating effect of sleep deprivation, but the story just unfolds very persuasively throughout in a very unpredictable and sophisticated way. I also liked very much the photography, capable of emphasizing so many subtle details, and the great music by the director. One to watch!
