The Wraith

WINNER, BEST FREEFALL, LIMELIGHT AWARDS 2012

OFFICIAL SELECTION, CRYSTAL PALACE INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL 2011

OFFICIAL SELECTION, BRITISH SHORTS FILM FESTIVAL, BERLIN 2012

From director Tom Walsh and narrated by Bernard Hill (Titanic, The Lord Of The Rings), The Wraith tells the story of a young woman trapped in limbo between the world of the living and the world of the dead.

Her only comforts come in the form of a ritual, bereft of meaning, and her dreams where she collects artifacts so she can construct puppet-like companions in her waking realm.

A beautiful score and poetic narration accompany this melancholy tale of longing and the search for forgiveness. The Wraith takes the audience through our world and into the next where dreams are reality and reality is a distant memory.

Brought to you by Polymath Pictures and produced in association with Urban Apache Films, the award winning team behind Northmen and Greasepaint.
