In this sinister thriller on filmmaking, Andrew, a sound recordist fuels his obsession with a young actress through nefarious means. A sound recordist’s job is one that’s often overlooked or forgotten on set, no matter how essential. When Andrew’s flirtations are turned down by actress Amy, he swiftly takes advantage of his ability to listen in on any conversation in a twisted bid for control.
