Storia
In restless 1930s Paris, American sisters Laura and Kate Barlow are known for their psychic act that involves communicating with ghosts during séances. French film producer André Korben becomes intrigued by their abilities after attending a performance and decides to collaborate with them in hopes of capturing genuine paranormal manifestations on film. However, as World War II begins to encroach upon Paris, Korben's reputation becomes increasingly tied to this ambitious project. The sisters' true nature remains uncertain—are they frauds or do they genuinely possess spiritual gifts?
