I enjoyed this film more than I expected to. Its sound direction was on point, cinematography was well executed, and ambiguity was just right.
I Am Not a Witch allows the audience to join Shula in dwelling on the short- and long-term costs of accusations, hopelessness in the life of the condemned, and just how much people will use you. Along the way, there'll be laughter, sadness, and tears.
By the end of the film, I was left questioning the matter of whether or not the females of the penal colony were actually witches, and if so then which ones.
Side Note: I didn't see this as a "satiric feminist fairy-tale."
