A girl on the verge of womanhood finds herself in a sensual fantasyland of vampires, witchcraft, and other threats in this eerie and mystical movie daydream. Valerie and Her Week of Wonders serves up an endlessly looping, nonlinear fairy tale, set in a quasi-medieval landscape. Ravishingly shot, enchantingly scored, and spilling over with surreal fancies.

COMMUNITY REVIEWS
A Visual Feast submitted by jibkidder on June 28, 2022, 11:14pm An absolute spectacle for the eyes in a way I can only relate to Jodorowsky. A very fun movie to watch with friends, edibles or both.
