Set in a lush forest surrounded by a high, ever-encroaching wall, INNOCENCE details the strange happenings at a remote boarding school for girls. Quickly establishing a vaguely threatening atmosphere and offering no easy answers, the film leaves the audience to wonder what exactly is going on. Why do the new pupils arrive in coffins? Why do they endlessly practice ballet routines? Why do they have no memory of the families they left? What, exactly, are these girls being groomed for? Unabashedly metaphorical and beautifully filmed, INNOCENCE examines the menacing side to stepping away from girlhood.
