Millennium Actress
Documentary filmmaker Genya Tachibana has tracked down the legendary actress Chiyoko Fujiwara, who mysteriously vanished at the height of her career. When he presents her with a key she had lost and thought was gone forever, the filmmaker could not have imagined that it would not only unlock the long-held secrets of Chiyoko’s life... but also his own.

Beth's new house is supposed to be a fresh start, but eerie disturbances make it feel anything but home. Then she meets Melissa-an alluring designer who offers her help. As they work together, Beth finds herself drawn to her in ways she can't explain. But as strange events intensify, so do Beth's doubts. Is she losing her grip on reality, or is something far more unexplainable at play?
