, dir. Goran Stolevski) This gorgeous film (a Sundance 2022 premiere) set in Eastern Europe in the 19th century is a stunning debut by Australian\/Macedonian filmmaker Goran Stolevski. It follows a young woman raised by a witch (drawn from a folklore legend) and the ways she learns about nature and humanity by inhabiting the bodies of different people. It\u2019s a gorgeous exploration of empathy and the possibilities and limits of human existence. With a fine international cast (including Lamb<\/em>\u2019s Noomi Rapace and Beautiful Creatures<\/em>\u2019 Alice Englert), lyrical cinematography and a beguiling soundtrack, this was my favorite film of the year.
