review by
Mike Haberfelner

After years of living in the city, Will (Scott Friend) returns to his small town home somewhere in the South - and feels oddly detached. And it's not just that city life has made him jaded, it's also that the townfolks seem to have grown odd: His former best friend Nick (Alex Breaux) has not only has he grown socially awkward, he also spends his nights digging for a Confederate treasure, Nick's cousin and Will's high school sweetheart Mary (Emma Duncan) has turned to witchcraft and white magic and keeps talking about visions and premonitions about Will, and to top it all off, Will's own mother (Elisabeth Noone) urges him to break contact with Nick and Mary, but not because they might be weird but they might be the key to a dark secret having to do with Will's own family. Will tries to do right by all, but the more things get odd, the clearer it gets for him he must uncover the family secret himself ...

 

Union Bridge is a film that pretty much defies categorization, it's in parts horror and in parts thriller, but also social drama with a bit of historical mixed in. Now the outcome does take a bit of patience, as this film intentionally relies less on linear storytelling but gives away its underlying story as a kind of puzzle that at times has past and present, dream and reality, natural and supernatural meet, but the way this is done is pretty fascinating, not only on a narrative level but also via a atmospheric directorial effort and fittingly down-to-earth performances to ground all the weirdness.

Maybe not everyone's cup of tea, but well worth a look for those looking for something unusual.
