The Plague, a new film from star and producer Joel Edgerton and director Charlie Polinger, is a deeply felt — and sometimes uncomfortable — drama about adolescence and belonging, with some scenes veering into the land of body horror.
It’s an affecting film: the acting is grounded and authentic, and it’s an incredible debut from the filmmaker.
Today I’m joined by Elijah Hoefer from Film Streams to discuss the film.
