Warm world premiere at Fantasporto

The Forest of Lost Souls had its world premiere last weekend at the Fantasporto Film Festival. The big audience in Rivoli was very into the film, and some news reviews have come out.

Cineuropa: "Lopes really stands out as a young filmmaker who is able to bring together several of his recognisable cinephilic references in order to bring to fruition a personal and carefully crafted debut project."

Screen Anarchy: "Fans of the art house horror genre will find much to like in Lopes’ feature film debut."
