Production
According to Lam, the script of Evangeline was motivated by reactions to the Pickton murders in the Vancouver area, and the Highway of Tears murders in northern British Columbia.[1][2]
Reception
The film is described as a supernatural revenge fantasy, about a university student (played by Kat de Lieva) who is beaten and left for dead in the woods.[3] Underpinning the film is a religious theme: the dilemma of eye for an eye (retributive justice) versus turning the other cheek.[2][4]
Awards
Evangeline received nine nominations for the Leo Awards, winning two.[5] The film also won two awards, Best Director and Best Cinematography, at the 2013 Blood in the Snow Canadian Film Festival.[6]
Release
The film premiered on September 28, 2013 in the Monsters of Film festival, in Stockholm,[7] and opened the 2014 Vancouver International Women in Film Festival.[4] The film was released in the United States as Direct to video production, on 8 May 2015 on Video on Demand[8] and on June 9, 2015 on DVD and Blu-ray.[9]
