The story develops as a haunting and suspenseful thriller harkening to classics like Hitchcock’s “Rebecca.” Directed by Eric D. Howell, “Voice from the Stone’s” script screamed to be read under a blanket with a flashlight. It plays as a Hitchcock fairy tale set in 1950's Tuscany with mysterious characters and a ghostly antagonist.
Written by Andrew Shaw based on the Italian novel “La Voce Della Pietra” by Silvio Raffo, “Voice fromthe Stone” is shot on location in a misted, alternate vision of Tuscany, the international cast includes also Marton Csokas, Edward Dring, Caterina Murino, Lisa Gastoni and Remo Girone.
“It is about these very real deeper human struggles: dealing with grief, with heartache, with the urge to belong. In several different ways, it really gets under your skin,” Clarke shares.
“Voice from the Stone” opens April 26 in cinemas nationwide from Pioneer Films.
