Directed by Owynn Kaye

Genres: experimental, mystery, thriller

Tones: dark, surreal, tense

A mother tries to make sense of her musician daughter's disappearance while an investigator delivers theories that may or may not be real. Dialogue-free; the point of view will not hold still.

Picked by Felix

The scouts

Dialogue-free missing-daughter thriller with a POV that won't hold still. Either Kaye is the real deal or this falls apart in the last act, and I genuinely want to find out which.

Felix

Kaye builds a dialogue-free missing-person thriller on shifting POVs and Jordan Raf playing two roles — Lost Highway compressed into one bad night with Martelian dread. The formal commitment is what makes it work.

Margot

Dialogue-free missing-person thriller with Jordan Raf playing both the boyfriend AND the investigator who arrives later — that's the load-bearing disorientation right there, not the score or the shifting POV. Wordless thrillers are hard; this one has a real structural reason to be wordless.
