Excellent but underrated film
Best movie ever!
The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.
The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
Two sisters decide to take the supernatural into their own hands.Director Erlingur Óttar Thoroddsen (who apparently divides his time between Iceland and the United States) has made a small, hard-hitting masterpiece with "The banishing". Not unlike the short for "Mama", we have an eerie little tale of young sisters and a ghostly, invisible woman. Both are excellent in their own ways.This short has solid acting, wonderful directing, some scares... and an impressive level of production value. If someone said this was a Hollywood production, most audiences would believe it. The stumbles and holes usually found in independent, low-budget productions are completely missing here.Thoroddsen is (as of 2015) hard at work on a feature-length version of his short "Child Eater". Few films are more anticipated.
