White Reindeer
Christmas is approaching in icy Virginia and the delighted heroine, who loves this particular holiday to the point of distraction and has made a habit out of counting back the days, will have to brush Christmas wishes, presents and sparkly decorations aside to deal with the repercussions of a tragedy and radically reassess her entire life.
Christmas is approaching in icy Virginia and the delighted heroine, who loves this particular holiday to the point of distraction and has made a habit out of counting back the days, will have to brush Christmas wishes, presents and sparkly decorations aside to deal with the repercussions of a tragedy and radically reassess her entire life.
What follows, is a black comedy that’s constantly teetering on the edge of darkness, with a sophisticated Christmas menu featuring a crime, an orgy, plenty of neurosis and tons of despair. Reminiscent of Todd Solondz at his most insightful and cynical, “White Reindeer” touches on some of the less attractive aspects of human behavior with endless reserves of compassion that the director of “Happiness” could never ever dream of.
