A girl is haunted by voices that she believes to be in her head - until they're not....
Synopsis
Lucy, a sixteen year old girl, wakes up early on the fourth of December - the anniversary of her little brothers death. As Lucy goes about this mournful day she starts to hear voices. Paying no attention to them she tries to stay calm but the voices become louder and the message becomes clearer. After a long day of ignoring these voices and gradually becoming more paranoid, Lucy realises they are not just in her head. At the end of her hallway is the source of these voices - her little brothers silhouette.

Filmmakers Intentions - Writer
As the writer of the film, I wanted to make sure that the audience experienced feelings of suspense and anxiety, similar to the feelings of the main character Lucy. In order to do this I wanted to be sure to include a couple of key things. For example, having something to provide ‘the fear of the unknown’, in this case the ‘unknown’ were the voices Lucy was hearing. I also wanted to experiment with foreshadowing and motifs, therefore I incorporated significant recurring numbers (4 and 12) to not only have a role in the plot but also to remind the audience that something may occur - have them feel like something may happen but they just can’t identify what. Overall, I wanted to allow the audience to experience the fear of the unknown themselves and to understand the tones of suspense and anxiety throughout the film.
