The movie
Leaving the cosy maternal cocoon, Marvin moves into a room on the seventh floor of an old dilapidated building. Everything would be going fine if he wasn’t being woken up by his neighbour’s violent fights. And there are also those doors that slam, the foot step noises behind him... More and more tired, and worried, Marvin starts doubting his own mental health. But nothing will fool him into thinking it could be a haunted house! Confronting his characters with irrationality, the filmmaker Yam Laranas logs his critique of power with texture, and skilfully renews the code of ghost movies. With brilliant imagery, The Echo might very well render your next trip to the cellar a demanding one on your nerves.
