Amy wakes up one morning convinced that she will die the next day. Her friend Jane first blames the young woman’s depression and alcoholism but is quickly overcome by a sense that she, too, has only hours to live. Helming her second feature, the actor Amy Seimetz tells the story of a mysterious premonition of death that runs rampant like an epidemic. Which seems uncannily topical these days but is also a feel-bad movie for the ages—as challenging in its experimental flow as it is magnificent.
