“One of the most interesting entries in the noir cannon for decades.”
Jennie Kermode“
Remarkable…Exceptional Mireille Enos stars in this sexy, shadowy thriller…Artful and atmospheric to the max…the film marks an auspicious debut for writer-director Camille Thoman and a fitting valedictory for the late, great Sam Shepard.”

Ben Pearson“Director Camille Thoman announces herself as a hugely promising auteur”

Leo BradyAbout the Film
Installation artist Miranda Fall follows, photographs and documents the lives of strangers to create her art. One night her secret lover witnesses a violent act from Miranda’s apartment window. To protect his identity, Miranda poses as the primary witness, making statements to the police about a crime she did not see. She begins to create a new piece of work, based on these circumstances. This simultaneously selfish and selfless act sends Miranda into a maze of doubt and fear, blurring the lines between artist and subject.
Writer-director Camille Thoman’s debut feature immerses viewers in a taut psychological thriller, with sumptuous imagery and sonic clues that steadily seep into the subconscious mind. Lines of morality blur and nothing is as it seems in this eerily fascinating exploration of identity, voyeurism and loss of self.
