A haunting psychological thriller that blurs the line between supernatural intervention and mental breakdown, anchored by grief and the unreliability of perception.

An inspector who just suffered a family tragedy is looking for a missing older man. Man's family is of no help, or are they hiding something? He is helped by a ghost of an actress who died 30 years ago, or is he slowly going insane?
