Movie: Ink

Ink is an independent film by director Jamin Winans, starring Soren Kelly, Quinn Hunchar and Jessica Duffy.

.

This movie is battle between good and evil. When we sleep there are two forces that guide our dreams. The one side, called storytellers, guide us through dreams of joy, hope, and desire. The other side, the incubi, guides our nightmares of fear, shame, guilt and despair.

.

Ink is a man who has lost all hope. He is on a quest to become an incubus. In order to do so he will steal the soul of a young girl and deliver her to the others. The storytellers, aided by a pathfinder, will fight to save her.

.

The pathfinder can feel the music of the world and can, therefore, see the links in the chain reaction of life. Through his manipulations events may be changed to save not only the little girl who was stolen, but break someone else out of a cycle of despair.

.

The cinematography of Ink is gorgeous and at times has the surreal quality and richness of Pan's Labyrinth. The fight scenes between the two forces are as good as the fighting in movies like The Matrix. The message hidden within the story is profound. Ink has all of the hallmarks of a great film, but due to its independent status missed the big box office exposure.

.

See Ink. It is worth time and it will leave you thinking.
