“It’s like a rumble…from the core of the earth.”
Pegged as a drama, the mystery in Memoria looks and “sounds” horror adjacent, which is why I figured I’d share the first trailer ahead of the Toronto International Film Festival premiere.
Apichatpong Weerasethakul directs the film that the fest says features the great Tilda Swinton (Constantine, Suspiria, Only Lovers Left Alive) as a woman reeling from a mysterious event.
“A woman from Scotland (Swinton), while traveling in Colombia, begins to notice strange sounds. Soon she begins to think about their appearance.”
Memoria has been described as both “haunting” and “meditative”, which sounds about right based on the following trailer, which uses sound to rattle the viewer.
NEON will release the film in the States.
