There are apes. And then there are apes. Skirting the planetary ambitions of your Kongs and your Caesars, the family in the new film from the directors of Kumiko, the Treasure Hunter just want a quiet corner of the woods to call their own…
You will laugh, you will shriek, you may cover your eyes. But after 20 minutes of watching, you start to acclimatize, you start to appreciate their different personalities. The longer you stay with them, the more you start to see.
Eli Glasner, CBC
Sasquatch Sunset is a wildly ambitious project that wrestles with reality and fantasy, the familiar and unfamiliar, to stir our emotions and longing for natural beauty.
Monica Castillo, rogerebert.com
Consistently weird and frequently wonderful, Sasquatch Sunset uses its high-concept premise to consider a host of themes: collective living, coexistence with nature, longing stirred by seclusion.
