Taken by the Storm

Confined to his home by a violent storm, a desolate man struggles to fill the long hours, his days blurring in a haze of routine and restless energy. But when eerie sounds echo through the walls and unsettling visions blur the line between reality and delusion, his quiet confinement turns into a waking nightmare. With no escape from the storm, or whatever has awakened inside his house, he must confront a terrifying dread that something, or someone, seems determined to drive him out… or destroy him from within.

Directed by Alicia Robinson, Taken by the Storm leans on a strong ensemble — Nathan Bois-McDonald, Samuel Rancourt — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about animation titles of 0.
