Teaser Trailer Comes ‘Knocking’ Ahead of Sundance World Premiere [Video]

Set to have its World Premiere at the forthcoming Sundance Film Festival is Frida Kempff‘s (Meet the Artist) indie Knocking, which the press release describes as “a sophisticated and psychologically suspenseful narrative in which Kempf deftly amplifies Molly’s gut-wrenching feelings of self-doubt, coupled with a fierce and soul-baring lead performance by actress Cecilia Milocco.”

“A woman (Molly) who has just experienced a traumatic incident is unnerved by a haunting knocking sound from upstairs in her new apartment building. As the noises become more desperate and increasingly sound like cries for help, she confronts her neighbors, but it seems no one else can hear them. In an unsettling quest for truth, Molly soon realizes that no one believes her, and begins to question if she even believes herself – a realization that is perhaps even more chilling.”

Here’s a 12-second teaser to go along with the official festival art.
