The Events Of That Night, As Best I Can Remember

The film begins with the protagonist, Elise arriving at a house party. However, with her attention more focused on something that unfolds in the darkness of the night, away from the general frolic around her, Elise is no more than an outsider here. She is a little out of place both inside this house, as well as outside - be it at a gas station or a convenience store.

As the night progresses, soon a strange presence makes itself felt, and the protagonist eventually engages with it with more ease than we have seen her exhibit up until this moment. Could Elise have found something, or someone, where she perhaps feels easier to follow their lead?

The question becomes one of the many that the film raises, choosing to conceal more than it reveals as a notable storytelling device. The visuals, editing, and approach to the overall treatment invoke a disorienting, heady realm of sci-fi and a sense of extraterrestrial otherworldliness. It presents a moment, a brief encounter with the protagonist, and the extremely uncanny events unfolding around her, establishing a premise for hopefully a longer project in the future, one that takes the viewer deeper into the film's world.
