excerpt, full review at my location.
Opening to mixed reviews at the Toronto International Film Festival in 2008, Eden Log marks Franck Vestiel's directorial debut.
Dealing with the classic argument between nature and machine through his gritty vision of a dystopic future; Vestiel is influenced by his previous work in intense French horror alongside directors such as Moreau and Palud.
An engaging and disturbing film with a simple premise, dealt with in a complex way. Overall it is 97 minutes of tense exploration and discovery, both of the plot and of the character behind it.
