film description

Synopsis:  Overwhelmed by pain from the loss of his mother, Mosbey Carter journeys into the underworld as he tries to free himself from his papalyzing grief and find value in life once more. The fusion of mystery and modern folklore, in a story about decorative bottles that trap the spirits of the dead, offers an interesting and powerful metaphor.
