Summary |
An intense drama of loss, faith, redemption, Megadeth and Judas Priest. METALHEAD begins with a farming accident in the 1980’s that sends a young girl, Hera, and her parents into a tail-spin of grief over the death of her heavy metal music-obsessed older brother. A decade later and Hera has become a surly headbanger and DIY musician. Seemingly trapped in a haunted landscape of slaughterhouses and barren winter fields, making all the wrong choices in her life, Hera slowly, painfully comes to terms with her family’s loss and the sound of her own true voice. Official Selection at the **Toronto International Film Festival**. Nominated for Best International Film at the **Santa Barbara International Film Festival**. *"It taps into something universal, and very precious, about loss, art and adolescent rebellion." - Andy Webster, **The New York Times*** |
