Overview

Part love story, part horror film, the latest creation from acclaimed independent directors Justin Benson and Aaron Moorhead is a genre-breaking story with a big heart. Reeling from the tragic loss of his mother, Evan impulsively flees his suburban hometown for Italy, where he meets and becomes captivated with a local woman named Louise. But it soon becomes clear that Louise has a dark and surprising secret that will test his feelings in ways he never imagined...

As with their acclaimed Resolution, directors Justin Benson and Aaron Moorhead have crafted an intriguing and unexpected riff on the horror film, which initially promises one thing before delivering something entirely different. As indebted to Richard Linklater’s Before Sunrise as it is the stories of HP Lovecraft, Spring is a work of sweeping romance and wild imagination and once again proves that this duo are two of the most exciting names in modern genre cinema.
