Originally bought the dvd of this film because Monica Bellucie was the star of the film. The video sat in my unwatched collection of foreign dvd's for a considerable time before I finally got around to watching it with no idea what it might be about. First thing that grabbed me was the the central high concept hook of a woman whose reality is shifting radically before her eyes . First her apartment shifts next her husband, mother and children are different people finally even her appearance alters into a different woman entirely.
Once the you experience this unique hook concept you can't stop watching this movie till you find out what the hell is going on. Is it some elaborate gaslighting perpetrated by her friends and relatives? Is she experiencing some kind of mirror world where her alter ego has a completely different life or she going insane for real and imagining all of it?
All aspects of the film are well done including some remarkable CGI effects sequences where one woman's face morphs into another. Excellent performances by the entire cast and fine cinematography and direction.
The ending isn't specifically clear if her experience is purely psychological or perhaps a possession by her dead sisters spirit which I kind of like. It leaves it up to the viewer to decide if it's supernatural or psychological. I found the film to be a very well done mystery and the ending satisfying. Were all the questions answered and tied up in a pretty bow? No a lot is left open to the viewers imagination to figure out or not.
All in all I rate it very highly for its sub genre of Gaslight type or loss of memory films. It's a unique twist on the subject which I enjoyed a lot.
