Directed by Agathe Loula
Tones: contemplative, dark, surreal
An unexpected encounter in a forest takes a dramatic turn, in a tale poised between fable and dreamlike drama.

The scouts
Two minutes of forest tableau that *almost* defies genre until it doesn't—Loula's playing it too safe with the fable framework when the surreal stuff begs to be let off the leash.
A formally composed descent into the uncanny that knows exactly which fairytale traditions it's excavating; the dreamlike pacing and tonal restraint mark this as work aware of its own lineage.
The shift from encounter to dramatic turn hinges entirely on a single compositional or sound choice we'd need to isolate—if Loula's committed to that specific decision, two minutes becomes unforgettable.
