Malice
Watch TrailerMark returns to his hometown after fifteen years, summoned by the ghosts of his past. His father, a once-respected teacher, vanished under mysterious circumstances, leaving behind only an old notebook and a trail of whispers. Reuniting with former classmates—now adults with children and secrets of their own—turns his investigation into a slow descent into collective amnesia. Every conversation, every clue in the dusty school archive doesn't bring answers but tangles the threads further. The town seems to have agreed to forget, and Mark must decide whether to wake sleeping demons, risking the fragile peace everyone has so carefully constructed.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
The director constructs the narrative through layers of memory, where each scene feels like a half-erased frame from the past. The camera is rarely static, its movement mimicking the gaze of someone trying to focus on an elusive detail.
Those who tire of neat resolutions will find a lingering unease here, a study in how communities heal wounds through collective forgetting. What lingers after is not a solution to the mystery, but the heavy cost of digging for truths better left buried. — MovieFinder Editorial
Director: Lai Mukuan
