Synopsis
A psychic medium suffering from a rare, terminal illness discovers a cursed television that allows her to genuinely communicate with spirits for a fee, while temporarily prolonging her life.

As a pattern of deaths emerges, a skeptic investigates but ultimately takes his own life to avoid the curse, leading to the medium's death as well.

Every stage matters — pitch decks and treatments from development, location scouts and table-reads from pre-production, set photos and crew anecdotes from production, edit-bay notes from post, and press kits, festival memories, or marketing ephemera from distribution. Any moment that didn't make the press tour, any document or photograph that's been sitting in a box — please share it so it's not lost to time.
We particularly welcome contributions from writers, producers, cast, crew, festival programmers, distributors, marketing teams, their families, and anyone who was there at any stage.
