Notes from the Studio

Why this project belongs here.

NOIR was built for fear that accumulates slowly, and WRAITHLINE is exactly that kind of film: a mystery where language itself becomes the haunted object.

The film sits inside a community fluent in dread before the outsider arrives. We are less interested in explaining the legend than in asking what a place protects when it keeps repeating one.
