An abandoned telephone booth calls out to ten-year-old Risa. After a tragic fire devastates their small town, residents take to calling the dead on an out-of-order telephone high atop a hill. But only Risa can hear the voices from the other side. Hoping to finally contact her mysterious father somewhere in this crowd of impatient spirits, she starts to take on the unfinished business of departed loved ones. Continuing a game of chess, locating life insurance policies, and finding a new home for a lost dog all become part of Risa’s daily to-do list. What starts as a simple set of tasks aided by a well-meaning neighbor turns into a life-defining search for love and acceptance in this charming storybook romp from acclaimed director Juan Cabral.
