The movie

Strange noises are preventing Molly from really settling in her new apartment. When the knocking intensifies, she is convinced someone is in danger.

* Frida Kempff, director, online, 06.07

Molly has just moved into a new apartment. Soon, she is disturbed by strange knocking noises that seem to come from upstairs. Worried, she mentions it to her neighbours, but no one believes her. As the knocking intensifies, Molly becomes convinced someone is in danger... As Frida Kempff’s first feature film, Knocking is a breathtaking sensory experience where the elegance of the directing perfectly captures the protagonist’s distress. A powerful tale of resilience whose subjective approach encourages the viewer to see beyond appearances.
