An experimental ghost story and docudrama exploring the profound grief stemming from an unsolved murder.
Director: Miryam Charles
Overview
In 2008 Bridgeport, Connecticut a teenage girl is found hanging in her bedroom, but an autopsy reveals her death was not the result of a suicide. Her mother is left to process her immense grief, while also reconciling the impact that leaving Haiti has had on her life. An entanglement of fractured memories and imagined realities exquisitely shot on 16mm, this personal, experimental documentary from Miryam Charles is a poignant ghost story quite unlike anything else.
