Audrey Rose

In the polished confines of Manhattan’s Upper West Side, a well‑to‑do family enjoys a life of routine comforts. Bill Templeton and his wife Janice Templeton raise their bright‑eyed eleven‑year‑old, Ivy, in a spacious apartment that hums with the quiet confidence of success. Their world is marked by the ordinary pleasures of a city that never sleeps—gallery openings, elegant dinners, and a close‑knit circle of friends—yet beneath the surface an unspoken fear of the unknown lingers, waiting for a ripple to disturb the calm.

That ripple arrives in the form of an enigmatic visitor who moves through their world with a quiet intensity. Elliot Hoover is a widower still haunted by the sudden loss of his wife and young daughter, Audrey Rose, in a tragic car accident. Carrying an air of solemn conviction, he introduces himself as a man convinced that the newest member of the Templeton household is more than a newborn—he believes she is the reincarnation of his lost child, returned to the world in a second chance that feels both miraculous and unsettling. His presence brings with it whispered references to psychic insights and age‑old spiritual doctrines, casting a shadow of doubt over the family’s familiar reality.

The encounter ignites a delicate tug‑of‑war between rational skepticism and the yearning for something beyond the material. Bill confronts the possibility that grief might be opening a doorway to a mystery that defies explanation, while Janice feels an unexpected pull toward the comfort offered by belief in continuity after death. Ivy, unaware of the weight placed upon her, becomes the silent fulcrum upon which love, loss, faith, and doubt balance. As the city’s winter light filters through their windows, the Templetons find themselves navigating an emotional landscape where the ordinary collides with the extraordinary, leaving the audience to wonder how far a single, unsettling suggestion can reshape the contours of a family’s truth.
