Excerpt: “The Midnight Swim” is a found footage film that...follows three estranged sisters who visit their childhood home to settle the affairs of their recently deceased mother...Interestingly, the film is told almost entirely through... a camera held by character June—who is suffering from a psychological ailment which skews her perception of reality. As such, while the camera doesn’t [reflect] what actually takes place. This approach to storytelling is brilliant as it adds a layer of abstraction and subjective interpretation to a plot already laden with symbolism and inherent ambiguity."
