Japan’s “Suicide Forest” is no doubt a perfect setting for a horror film, and next year’s The Forest draws inspiration from the nightmarish stories. Over in Portugal, upcoming movie A Floresta das Almas Perdidas (The Forest of Lost Souls) takes place in a similar locale but looks quite a bit different.

Described as a coming-of-age tale, this one was directed by José Pedro Lopes, and it was recently filmed in both Portugal and Spain. As you’ll notice in the teaser trailer below, it was shot completely in black and white, and if this brief sneak peek is any indication, it’s going to be very unique.

Check out the teaser, plot crunch, and poster art below.

The film stars Daniela Love, Jorge Mota, Mafalda Banquart, Ligia Roque, Lilia Lopes, Tiago Jacome, and Debora Ribeiro.

Synopsis:
Ricardo (Jorge Mota) is a sad old man, who gave up on life when his older daughter, Irene (Lilia Lopes), took her life in a romantic pact gone wrong in the glacier lake that rests hidden deep in the forest. Carolina (Daniela Love) is an eccentric, unstable young girl who finds all things related to death are fun.

As bumping into each other puts them off killing themselves, they decide to go for a walk to discover The Forest of the Lost Souls and see what they will find. As they walk deeper into the woods, they get to know each other and become friends: But one of them is not being honest; one of them is a dark and horrible person.
