A dark, melancholic mystery centered on grief, guilt, and hidden trauma following a sibling's suicide, where supernatural elements blur the line between psychological breakdown and genuine haunting.

It is the last day of school for Christian and his younger sister Sophie. They are heading to a party at his friend Trina. High school graduation is just around the corner and after the freedom and future. But behind the idyllic facade lurks tragedy and secrets. That evening Sophie commits suicide.
