Shortwave (2016)

In the heartrending aftermath of losing their sole child, Josh and Isabel Harris retreat to a remote hillside research facility, clinging to the frail hope of mending their shattered family bonds. Life in seclusion takes an unexpected turn when Josh, alongside his research associate Thomas, stumbles upon a cryptic breakthrough - a shortwave radio signal with mysterious universal origins. As the signal's enigmatic echoes weave their way into their existence, Isabel is swept into a maelstrom of hallucinations and visions of far-flung memories. A strange familiarity resonates within her with the signal, blurring the lines of reality. Simultaneously, the scientists are drawn into a vortex of concern for Isabel’s declining health, whilst Isabel herself is gripped by a growing dread that the signal has summoned something malevolent to their newfound sanctuary. "Shortwave" dances on the razor's edge of psychological thriller and scientific exploration, unraveling a chilling narrative rooted in the origins of shortwave radio frequencies. It serves as an unnerving testament to the perils of disturbing the undisturbed, reminding the viewer that some stones, once overturned, unleash far more than just the secrets they hide. This modern, pulse-pounding drama is sure to keep audiences on the edge of their seats, questioning what lurks within the static.
