Shot on analog film with contact microphones pressed against forgotten surfaces, this haunting cinematic excavation revisits the 19th-century yellow fever outbreak in New Orleans—not as a historical reenactment, but as a séance for buried pain. Drawing directly from archaeologist and parapsychologist T.C. Lethbridge’s Stone Tape Theory, the film imagines that brick, wood, and stone don’t just hold memories—they trap them, replaying moments of agony like grooves on a broken record. Here, the city’s fever-soaked past isn’t simply told; it’s physically felt, scraped from walls and floors through raw, textured imagery and bone-rattling sound. The result is a sensory ghost story where trauma leaves fingerprints on matter, and the only way to hear the dead is to listen with your skin.
