A woman in a vintage look red dress lies on a bed holding onto the arm of a replica red dress. Black Noise

Director: Simon Blake

Year: 2026

BLACK NOISE is a tale of those two uneasy bedfellows: Justice & Revenge. ​In a decaying country house hotel that once hid a brutal orphanage, Leda, a ghostwriter, arrives to interview a wealthy, dysfunctional family - intent on exposing their crimes. As she’s drawn under the spell of the enigmatic Butler and his ghostly silent staff, reality dissolves into hallucinatory fever dreams and the nightmarish black noise that accompanies them. Might it be that Leda has a fractured psyche? Herself also a victim of the abuse she seeks to uncover, stuck in a never-ending search for answers hidden deep within. A lavish memorial banquet becomes a Grand Guignol massacre, forcing her to confront how far she will go for justice and whether revenge can ever purge the atrocities of the past. ​​A strangely seductive fantasy, richly atmospheric, a fractured narrative which slowly reveals itself as a cinematic fever dream.
