SCAPE


Grief rewinds like a rented tape. A girl summons her father through an old VHS, only to find his ghost waiting on the other side – alive. As home videos distort and childhood memories warp into something sinister, she must confront not only the spirit of her father, but the child-self she buried with him. A haunted reckoning unfolds in the static, where the past won’t stay dead. Anchored by real home videos, these recordings serve as narrative and aesthetic touchstones – but also as a scene partner, resurrecting forgotten characters and blurring the line between living and lost.
