Initially, Séance may seem like just another slow burn supernatural Thriller. But as the plot thickens we realize this is more a story about trauma, grief and women’s desires.

About Boulder

Seance uses the trappings of the parlor game spook show to say something tragically accurate. It’s an elegant film made with keen intelligence.
