What does it take for a mother (Rachel Keefe) to kill her child (Eda
Edwards)? Sure, it could be that she's just a hopeless drunk or even a
raging lunatic, but even then there must be a reason for that. Was it her
father (Jerry Pietrala) who might have done things to her, her failed
marriage to her husband (J.P. Edwards), was it just self-hatred, or a
twisted combination of all of it? Now I know I'm very vague in
my synopsis of Malign, but truth to be told, that's the only way to
do the film justice, as it's told in a non-linear and at times associative
way, in a way that asks more questions than it cares to answer - and
that's really working for the movie here, as it doesn't even try to give
easy answers, doesn't over-psychoanalyze or hammer a message home, instead
leaves it to the audience to piece its puzzle together - and thanks to the
film's very clever, only seemingly random structure, that's quite a
fascinating thing to do. And of course, rather beautiful camerawork and a
very able little ensemble only help to bring the story to life. Definitely
worth a watch.
