  • Summary

  • Another year, another Melbourne International Film Festival (or MIFF, as I begrudgingly call it) is in the books. This time, we caught a screening of Hoard, a British indie film directed by first-time filmmaker Luna Carmoon. The story centers on a young woman grappling with the haunting memories of her troubled childhood, spent with her mother, an obsessive hoarder. Starring Saura Lightfoot-Leon and Joseph Quinn (whom some of us have dubbed the "young Jude Law"), the film delivers some truly grotesque and shocking moments that have unsurprisingly sparked a divide in our reactions. The narrative unfolds in a surreal and sometimes baffling manner, leaving much to unpack. Join us as we delve into the film's layers, exploring its themes of grief, memory, and unexpected connections. And since Luna managed to snag Joseph Quinn for her debut, we also take a moment to discuss which actors we’d realistically cast in our own first films.
