The Chinese believe the gates of Hell are thrown open for 30 days during the 7th Month. Ghosts walk among us. I suppose that is better than having teabaggers and birthers walking among us in the 8th month like they do here in the US.
Rosa (Alessandra de Rossi) comes to Singapore from the Philippines to work to help her sick brother. She is focused on doing a good job for the Teos (Shucheng Chen & Huifang Hong), and doesn't pay attention to the things you are supposed to do to not offend the Ghosts. Unfortunately, the movie goes on for almost 40 minutes before they bother to tell her that she screwed up.
That's after she sees ghosts everywhere. We don't know at times whether it's real or imagined. The sounds are spooky and the suspense is great. It's a real ghost story in the old fashioned "scare your pants off" school. Things get really strange when we find out the real reason for Rosa's presence.
Those at the Toronto and New York film festivals can see de Rossi in Independencia.
