Plot
Adopted by a treacherous semi-scientific cult where extraordinary mental powers are common, extraordinary 12-year-old David begins an archetypal journey across two continents to find his destiny as Child of the Moon.
Sinekatalog’s take
A strange fantasy about a gifted boy raised by a cult and sent on a journey to meet his destiny. Visually ambitious, uneven in tone. A curiosity for fans of offbeat mystical cinema.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
