<em>Ouija</em>
By Maura Campbell. Directed by Bob Moss.
What if the voice you hear comes from another world?
A coming of age story about lust, innocence, and gender identity features two sisters, Carolyn and Mary, whose antics with a Ouija Board conjure parallel lives with Saint Bernadette, Bernadette a prostitute, and Jennifer Jones. Robert, who is Jewish, loves the sisters and goes on a spiritual journey with them that is both horrifying and tantalizing. Ouija, a shape-shifter and spiritual guide, casts his spell on these characters to help them discover the nature of love, both inside and outside their bodies.
