โฆ Synopsis
Stella's sophomore year of college plays over and over in her head, like a movie.
She can't forget what happened that fall, but she has to at least try to face it. And the only way to do that is to screen it, for all of you.
Welcome, to the premiere.
When Stella returns to her prestigious university in the fall of 1992, she and her friends are unprepared for the plot that is about to unfold. They're merely focused on excelling academically and enjoying the privilege that comes with leaving freshman year behind.
Enter Alice.
She's new - a transfer student with a guarded backstory. Curious by nature, she seems to fit right in with the central cast.
But when an old campus myth involving the death of a female student resurfaces, the leading ladies find themselves questioning each other, their environment, and whether or not history really can repeat itself.
A mythology course, a dead body, and several years later, Stella is no longer able to convince herself that she is safe behind the camera.
Because whoever said life isn't like the movies clearly never watched any Hitchcock.
