When Malcolm wakes up, he has no idea where - or even who - he is. A woman who tells him that she is his wife Helen reassures and reminds himself of his identity and that he's recovering for an accident. But as others arrive, like Ian and a masked group that wants something that Malcolm has been hiding, nothing makes sense.

The first full-length movie by Tomas Street, Fugue has some moments of beauty mixed with darkness. Jack Foley, who was also in Lifechanger, is great in the lead role, suggesting a toughness beneath the surface of a man whose memory has left him. Laura Tremblay, who plays his - well, maybe - wife is also good in this.

It's an intriguing idea for a movie that's well-executed. What else do you want, you know?

Great Canadian Movie!

I have been watching a lot of Canadian film and television recently due to online film festivals being "the norm" in 2020 and I stumbled upon THE FUGUE.

After some friends had recommended it, I decided to have a watch. A great lean story with wonderful performances from the three leads. I was actually surprised by the ending too! I would definitely recommend this to anyone who wants to be inspired by what kinds of independent films are being made in Canada!
