A young sound engineer whose mother has recently been murdered uses her expertise in audio to launch her own investigation into the case, only to find that the sounds of the past could prove key to solving a mystery of the present in director Alanté Kavaïté's poetic thriller. Charlotte's mother has been mysteriously murdered, but the grieving daughter isn't about to let the investigations stall due to the simple incompetence of the local police force. When Charlotte travels back to the house that her mother lived in at the time of the murder and makes an audio recording that seems to be of supernatural origins, the surreal events that follow lead the once-skeptical girl down a darkened path that threatens to consume her own soul with each new terrifying revelation. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

This is an interesting idea for a story but it just doesn't pan out in the script. This needed to be a real murder mystery with supernatural undertones. The ghost of the girl's Mother helping her solve her own murder from the other side would have been engaging but the film makers just didn't know how to take the story ball and run with it. The story peters out about a third of the way into the film and by that time the viewer has lost interest. It is slow moving and the characters don't arouse any real interest either. Pass on this one. My Grade: C- Marc L. Seattle, WA
