Medusa
Electrifying genre-bending horror about a gang of marauding vigilantes who target women they deem to be sinful.
Director: Anita Rocha da Silveira
Overview
In writer-director Anita Rocha de Silveira’s genre-bending horror Medusa, 21-year-old Mariana is a member of a repressive patriarchal Christian sect. By day, she and her girlfriends cultivate the image of the perfect woman; at night, they don masks to become a brutal vigilante gang, mercilessly prowling the city for women they deem to be sinners. But when a confrontation goes violently wrong, deadly tensions emerge between Mariana and her pious sisters. An electrifying assault on the senses, Medusa is a nightmarish psychological thriller inspired by the work of David Lynch and Dario Argento
