10/10
Nostalgic and Bittersweet
4 February 2023
The Song of Sway Lake by Ari Gold is an emotionally charged and visually stunning movie. The story was captivating, and the setting was haunting. I felt both nostalgia and sadness as I watched protagonist Ollie embark on a journey with his Russian friend Nikoli to find a prized family possession at his family's abandoned lake property. The music by Ethan Gold is also fantastic - it really helped to set the mood and bring the story to life along with the scenic shots. I highly recommended if you're looking for an emotional film that will stay with you long after you've watched it!

Ari Gold's Adventures of Power was the only other film of his that I had seen, and this film shows a skillful range in Gold's writing and directing.
