Lo spettro (The Ghost)

In turn-of-the-century Scotland, a young wife conspires with her lover to murder her wealthy paralyzed surgeon husband. But when the dead spouse’s spirit returns to haunt the couple, it will unleash a nightmare of spectral terror, sudden violence and depraved vengeance.

"In Lo spettro, Freda’s art, due to a lack of resources, forgoes a purely earthly, banal movement, yet manages to imbue the narrative with a more ethereal rhythm, connected to the figure of Elio Jotta’s ghost, a tale that leaves us astonished. We know that, in the end, the plot will be resolved with a rational explanation, yet we feel as if we are flying on the metaphysical wings of this “ghost”. And so we understand how Freda’s skill in staging proves superior to that of any other Italian director." (Nocturno Cinema #80)
