OIFF CLOSING DAY
We close the festival headlining two remarkable films: the Swiss feature film “TRAPPED” and its tale about two students in the wilderness who encounter a strange young woman and are drawn into her reality putting their friendship to the ultimate test, and our closing feature film “CAMILLA DICKINSON” filmed from a screenplay by Madeleine L’Engle (A Wrinkle In Time) , a star-filled affair featuring Samantha Mathis, Adelaide Clemens, Kathryn Manheim and Cary Elwes.
Don’t miss out on your chance to be the first discover these new classics.
Camilla Dickinson
Dir: Cornelia Duryée Moore
A coming-of-age film equal parts sweet, poignant and wise. Fifteen-year-old Camilla Dickinson, a lover of astronomy, leads a sheltered life in New York City until her parents’ marriage begins to fall apart. Life becomes more complicated with the attentions of her best friend’s older brother. At its finest moments the film touches on the spiritual. Based on the 1951 book by Madeline L’Engle and starring Samantha Mathis and Cary Elwes.
