Why we chose it

A couple who have lost their child spend the off-season in Venice, among dead-end alleys, damp walls and fog rising off the canals. Donald Sutherland is at his best, the editing weaves present and future together like a mosaic, and the ending of this horror film is one nobody forgets.

Synopsis

John and Laura’s daughter Christine drowns in the pond behind their English home. When John is hired to restore a church in Venice, Laura goes with him, and in a restaurant she meets two elderly sisters. The blind one claims Christine has sent a warning: John is in danger in the city. He doesn’t believe a word of it, but in the alleys he starts glimpsing someone in a little red coat.
