The Moon is Upside Down

1h 40m Comedy, Drama 2024

Three women - a mail-order bride, a numbed anaesthetist and an empty nester - each navigate their way through an unfamiliar landscape and the contours of the human heart.

AroView: The impressive debut feature of Loren Taylor as writer-director, who displays a gift for comic timing behind the camera as she did in front for ‘Eagle Vs. Shark’. Reuniting with her co-star Jemaine Clement, her keen eye for the absurd delivers a cringe comedy that will appeal to fans of that 2007 classic and the more recent ‘Nude Tuesday’.

She plays one of three women in (mostly) separate stories about sexual, status and cultural anxieties that are all painfully recognizable, with none more so than one starring Victoria Haralabidou, whose performance as a Russian mail-order bride ranks with the very best from this country or any other.

“A wry and sharply-written examination of the gap between hopeful expectations and the cold, hard realities of life.” ~Wendy Ide, Screen Daily
