More than a century after its publication, Sheridan Le Fanu's short novel that laid the foundations for the female vampire story is still alive. In Carmilla, that Gothic text serves as inspiration for the creation of an atmospheric story of sexual awakening. In it, Lara, who lives in seclusion with her father and a strict housekeeper, will see how everything changes with the arrival of the mysterious Carmilla. (Sitges Film Festival)

This Victorian drama revolves around a teenage girl living on a family estate according to an established regime and binding rules that make her life a stern and depressing repetitive routine (the same feelings are transmitted to the viewer through similarly tense and tedious storytelling). A little bit of excitement comes with the arrival of an unknown beauty of the same age as the heroine, who had a carriage accident nearby and is suffering from memory loss. However, the intimate period piece, which attracts the audience with a potentially forbidden lesbian romance and devilish elements, only ends up amounting to a promise and cautious hints and offers nothing more; only ambivalent unravelling with motives of prejudice and fear of the unknown which, after an hour and a half of a weak story about the desire to break free from the shackles of the ascetic environment and finally live to the fullest, cannot be considered particularly satisfying.
