Moon Garden is a masterpiece.
The story of a little girl who goes to dark magical place after falling down a flight of stairs is pure movie magic. It has wonders the likes of which you have never seen.
The film is a purely visceral trip, the result of largely being the story of the mind space the little girl finds herself as she lays in a coma. Any notion of a plot falls away in favor of recounting what the child is experiencing. Because she is young the reference are emotional and more visceral than they might be for an adult. The result is a fantasy that is in many ways more intense than the vast majority of horror films you’ll run across. The images and events are dredged up from the darkness of a child’s frightened soul.
I love this film. I can’t wait to see it again when I can see it on a big screen when I won’t be able to look away and have to take it all in.
Highly recommended.
This maybe one of the most magical films you’ll see this year
