After making the festival rounds, we now have the official trailer for Ryan Gregory Phillips’ Shortwave, which Luiz says “shines with more emotion than horror.”
Shortwave is now wrapping up its successful festival run after its Spanish premiere last weekend as an official selection at the Sitges Film Festival. It has already screened as an official selection at close to 20 film festivals, wracking up several awards in the process including, most recently, Best Feature and Best Cinematography at the NOLA Horror Film Fest.
In the film, “Josh and Isabel Harris, after suffering the loss of their only child, relocate to a secluded hillside research facility with the hopes of repairing their broken family. After years of trying, Josh and his research partner, Thomas, have a breakthrough involving a cryptic shortwave radio signal and its universal origins. Something within the signal resonates with Isabel and she begins experiencing seeming hallucinations and visions of distant memories. Upon further investigation into the phenomenon, the scientists fear for Isabel’s health while Isabel fears the signal has attracted something sinister to their new home.”
Juanita Ringeling, Cristobal Tapia Montt, Kyle Davis, featuring Jay Ellis, Nina Senicar, and Sara Malakul Lane star.
