The Octopus ProjectSinopsis(1)
Annie es una niña de diez años que vive en las afueras de Austin con su padre, un perdedor que apenas le presta atención. Sin ninguna autoridad adulta que la oriente, Annie vaga por el bosque y la ciudad, robando y rompiendo cosas. Un día, caminando entre los árboles, oye la voz de una anciana que pide ayuda desde el fondo de un pozo. Aunque la niña no está segura de que sea prudente socorrer a la mujer, acude al lugar todos los días con algunos víveres y, también, muchas preguntas. (Sitges Film Festival)

This film is pure redneck art. It's a slow, chilling portrayal of a peculiar young girl whose life is a monotony of wreaking havoc and causing misery wherever she goes. Her complete lack of empathy leads her to leave an elderly woman trapped in a well to die. It's a psychological study of a teenage psychopath beyond redemption, observed without a hint of hope or chance for reform. There's no journey of transformation here; instead, it lays bare a harsh reality. There are fleeting moments where you think she might show a trace of humanity, but those are quickly crushed. The story builds to an intriguing finale, which might seem like a catharsis but is actually just resignation. I appreciate that this isn’t another film about a young psychopath from a relatively functional family. This girl has nothing but a roof over her head, and it's no surprise she turned out the way she did.
