SYNOPSIS

In the small mountain village of Avechot, on Christmas Eve, a young woman with no previous convictions, Anna Lou Kastener, disappears without a trace. Commissar Vogel, a media man with a camera addiction who follows him everywhere, is sent to the scene to try to find her. Surrounded by a pack of journalists who watch his every move, Vogel quickly realises that the disappearance has led him down a blind alley and that he will be unable to find her. He first investigates the teenager's family, whose parents are members of a fanatical religious congregation, before taking an interest in a strange and lonely young man.

CINDIE SAYS:
"Ragazza Nella Nebia (The Girl in the Fog), directed by Donato Carrisi, is a meticulously crafted psychological thriller that plays with the conventions of classic crime cinema, immersing viewers in a dense fog of moral ambiguity and manipulation. Based on Carrisi’s own novel, the film is a captivating exploration of small-town secrets, obsession, and the terrifying subjectivity of truth. It’s a rare treat to watch an author take complete control of his story’s visual interpretation. Carrisi’s deep understanding of the source material enables him to plant subtle clues and red herrings with precision, echoing the tension and twists found in his writing.
For film lovers, especially those keen on nuanced storytelling and layered mysteries, this film offers much more than meets the eye.
