SOMEBODY
Peter Dunphy (N. Ireland)
A late-teenage son (Peter Dunphy) and his father (Patrick McParland) live
together, and both, in turn, experience strange happenings. Are they
hallucinating or going mad - or is there some other explanation? A complex,
intriguing movie which is well shot, lit and edited; in fact, this is a piece
of 'pure cinema' in the sense that it could not exist in any other medium.
