Plot Summary

Resonating with vibrant memories and silent echoes of a shared life, the old house has a profound connection with "C", a sensitive composer reluctant to abandon it. In contrast, "M", his loving wife, is eager to move out, driven by an inexplicable sense of foreboding. And then, disaster strikes; detached from his lifeless body, C's spirit rises from the mortician's table and chooses to linger in this dimension to follow grieving M back home. As silent as a shadow and as invisible as the air, C's restless phantom observes as bereft M goes from denial and depression to acceptance and even hope as the years unfold. On this earth, people strive to leave a lasting legacy. Is this the path to immortality? Written by Nick Riganas
