“What’s special about Humanist is how Louis-Seize maintains an easygoing atmosphere despite the heavy material.”~Paste Magazine

Aroview: A delightfully deadpan French-Canadian comedy about a doleful adolescent vampire who is too compassionate to kill for her special dietary needs, and instead yearns to be a regular mortal goth girl. Ariane Louis-Seize’s coming-of-age romance follows in a long line of vampire parodies but it provides easy surrender to anyone who ever dabbled with black eyeliner.
