Synopsis
A MODERN MEDIEVAL SAGA, The Wild Hunt tells the story of Erik Magnusson,
a young man who decides to follow his estranged girlfriend Evelyn into a medieval
re-enactment game when he discovers that she has been seduced by one of the
players.
As the down-to-earth Erik treks deeper into the game in search of his love, he
inadvertently disrupts the delicate balance of the make believe fantasy-land.
Passions are unleashed. Rules are broken. Reality and fantasy collide.
The good-hearted game turns into a tragedy of mythic proportion...
Capturing the culture of costume play and the potentially dangerous intersection of real and made-up worlds, The Wild Hunt is a timely and potent comment on the consuming nature of adopting another identity, even within a game, and the modern yearning for ritual.

After pursuing a successful banking career in Canada, the Persian Gulf and Central America, Alexandre decided to follow his passion for film and quit the business world for good. His stories, in which characters escape a dreary reality and find solace in the imaginary world, are a grim reminder of his old banking job. The Wild Hunt is his first feature.
If you are a good little Troll, you will see Alexandre’s self portrait in the Magical Treasure section.
