Cries and Whispers
“Four women dressed in white in a mansion painted red... haunted by whispers and cries.”
As Agnes slowly dies of cancer, her sisters are so deeply immersed in their own psychic pains that they can't offer her the support she needs. Maria is wracked with guilt at her husband's attempted suicide, caused by his discovery of her extramarital affair. The self-loathing, suicidal Karin seems to regard her sister with revulsion. Only Anna, the deeply religious maid who lost her young child, seems able to offer Agnes solace and empathy.
A profoundly melancholic and stark journey into the human soul, exploring grief, familial bonds, and the search for connection amidst despair. Its slow-burn intensity and haunting visuals create an unforgettable, deeply introspective experience, perfect for quiet contemplation.
