Overview

Michaela, an epileptic, enrolls in college to study education. She goes off her medication and soon begins hearing voices and seeing apparitions that tell her to avoid religious objects, although she is devoutly Roman Catholic. One priest scoffs at the idea that Michaela could be possessed by demons, but a younger pastor arranges an exorcism for the young woman.

How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A haunting descent into ambiguity where medical crisis and religious conviction become indistinguishable. Requiem walks the razor's edge between psychological breakdown and spiritual crisis, leaving viewers uncertain whether Michaela's suffering is demons or damage, or both.
