SUMMONERS

SUMMONERS (International Premiere) 

Dir: Terence Krey. Starring: Christine Nyland, McLean Peterson, Larry Fessenden. USA (2022) 80mins

Jessica Whitman isn’t a witch. Not anymore, at least. She left it behind when she left her hometown almost ten years ago. But when a childhood friend needs her help performing a dark spell, she’ll find herself questioning her sense of right and wrong, and grappling with her late mother’s secrets.

Subdued and intimate, SUMMONERS is a lo-fit take on PRACTICAL MAGIC that explores friendship and the mystic in ways both moving and beautiful.
