Program Note
A stylish directorial debut by UK’s Andrew Desmond, this subtle mystery-thriller effectively combines the elements of ‘music’ and ‘demon’ to create convincing chills. Outstanding performances feature Freya Tingley as a sleuthing virtuoso violist Rose, Simon Akbarian as her manager Charles and Rutger Hauer as Rose’s ever-macabre, dead composer extraordinaire father Richard Marlow.
