a great feature directorial debut from nikyatu jusu! i loved the mixing and playing with different genres and i think it all worked well for a first feature. from drama to romance to horror it all molded together to create this beautiful yet haunting story of an immigrant woman in america.

anna diop is a star! i knew she was good with the little scenes she had in us but here she shines. this is her film and she gives an incredibly powerful performance. also to watch a modern horror film directed by a black woman starring a black woman literally made for me !

there are some scenes here I'll be thinking about for a long time, especially in that third act !
