Last letter

A woman reconvenes with her long-lost niece at a funeral only to learn the niece still refuses to accept her mother’s passing. While arranging memorials, her old flame’s message arrives—still in love—but is it meant for her or the ghost of her sister? The screen stays discreetly silent on the sender’s identity.
