Year 2061. Everyone has left Earth. A figure is sent back to Earth to check on the situation. Are they the same elements, do the history chips work? Slowly, something begins to happen, a ritual to evocative rhythmic music. There is a threat... - it comes from within. Gradually, a trance-like state arises, where the figure meets its dark side.

A mood-based, audio-visual film, inspired by and with Virpi Pahkin's dance.

The Ghost Sonata relates the adventures of a young student, who idealizes the lives of the inhabitants of a stylish apartment building in Stockholm. He makes the acquaintance of the mysterious Jacob Hummel, who helps him to find his way into the apartment, only to find that it is a nest of betrayal and sickness. The world, the student learns, is hell and human beings must suffer to achieve salvation.
