Nocturne

90 Minutes, Not Rated

Written and directed by Zu Quirke

Synopsis:

Inside the halls of an elite arts academy, a timid music student begins to outshine her more accomplished and outgoing twin sister when she discovers a mysterious notebook belonging to a recently deceased classmate.

Nocturne stars Sydney Sweeney, Madison Iseman, Jacques Colimon, and Ivan Shaw.

What begins as an exploration of the competitiveness of a high-pressure arts high school rapidly decends into a supernaturally influenced overturning of the established order of things between two sisters: Juliet and Vivian.

This is a bit like a music-school Suspiria, though perhaps not quite as fully formed in terms of its mythology. But if you enjoyed either version of that film, you’ll find something to like in Nocturne.

Have a listen as Ryan and I discuss it, then let us know what you thought of the film.
