TIFF 2013 Wavelengths Stretches Out With A LOT of Features

Like last years documentary-feature-slash-anthropological-thesis Leviathan, the Wavelengths section at this years Toronto International Film Festival has a lot of 'quasi-commercial' feature films on offer for the hardcore and casual cinéaste or cinephile.  In particular, Ben Wheatley's experimental and baffling A Field In England, which is already available on Blu-Ray in the UK, but here is getting its North American theatrical premiere at the festival; it promises a surreal and unusual experience in the dark.  Albert Serra's Dracula and Cassanova meditation, The Story of My Death, made with non-actors and drawing comparisons to his 2008 'Three Wise Men' feature, BirdSong is a highlight of the programme, Also, Tsai Ming-Liang's Stray Dogs is tucked away in here, too.  And worth mentioning are feature films from Estonia (A Spell to Ward Off the Darkness), Cambodia (The Missing Picture) and Nepal (ANAKAMANA).  The full list of features, as well as short and medium length films are listed below.
