About this movie

An enigmatic phone call from a psychic catapults a family into a state of suspended belief while waiting for their recently deceased mother to be resurrected. One sister believes the claim, and the other staunchly opposes it until she encounters a chance at love, giving her hope that anything, even resurrection, is possible. A discordant struggle between sisters plays out in a world where the virtual and real often converge.

Ratings and reviews

This film is simply a piece of cinematic genius. A genuine rarity in among contemporary American films. I've read so many negative reviews by critics and audience alike, that's very sad. Contemporary viewers can't recognized remarkable artistic genius when it hits them in the face. This film is not suppose to scintillate, but if you stick with it 10-15 minutes and let the slow cinematic beauty of it open up to you, it really takes you for a ride. I sincerely hope M Blash carries on in his remarkable career.

Nonsense. Has to much going on in the movie. 1:death 2:infidelity 3:homosexuality 4:forest fire 5:finding ones self. I could keep going with the different things going on in this movie, I won't. Would like to give no stars.
