Hi /r/movies! We are Nahéma Ricci (lead actress), Annick Blanc (director/writer) & Maria Gracia Turgeon (producer) of HUNTING DAZE, a Canadian thriller that premiered at SXSW in 2024. A stranded young woman joins a group of hunters at a remote cabin, threatening the group’s balance. Ask us anything!

More information:

Nina, a young, tempestuous woman, finds herself stranded in the far North. She convinces five men on a bachelor hunting trip, to put her up for a few days. In this masculine microsociety, by turns hilarious and philosophical, Nina starts to feel a sense of belonging she never has before. But a mysterious stranger’s arrival changes the course of this improvised holiday forever. Both raw and dreamlike, Hunting Daze offers up a unique universe where humour, horror, the uncanny, and the sensual combine.

Our film played at SXSW, Fantasia, Sydney FF, KVFF, and more in 2024. It's out now in the US and Canada on Digital.
