Disappearance at Clifton Hill

In the shadow of the thunder‑rippled Niagara Falls, a modest town clings to its aging tourist charms while the roar of the water masks a lingering sense of unease. After her mother’s passing, a young woman inherits a once‑bustling motel that sits on the edge of the famous cliffs, a place that has long been a quiet backdrop to the flux of visitors and locals alike. The town’s damp streets, flickering neon signs, and the perpetual mist create a cinematic atmosphere where past and present seem to bleed together, inviting anyone who stays long enough to stare into the depths of its hidden histories.

Abby returns to this world carrying more than just the keys to the motel; she carries a fractured recollection from her childhood—a fleeting glimpse of a frightening event that has haunted her ever since. Struggling with a habit of embellishment and a fierce need to untangle truth from memory, she finds herself at odds with her sister, Laure, whose pragmatic plans for the property clash with the younger sister’s refusal to let the past dissolve. Their differing visions for the motel become a subtle battleground, underscoring a family dynamic strained by grief, responsibility, and lingering secrets.

Drawn into a decades‑old mystery that seems stitched into the very fabric of the town, Abby begins to navigate a network of eccentric locals, including a passionate conspiracy‑theory podcaster who smells intrigue in every rumor. The community’s quiet whispers about old disappearances and unspoken deals hint at a deeper, unsettling truth that refuses to stay buried. As she pushes further, the line between her hazy memories and the town’s collective stories blurs, casting doubt on what can be trusted. The film’s tone hovers between atmospheric suspense and psychological introspection, inviting viewers to share in the protagonist’s uneasy quest for answers amidst a landscape where every echo of the falls seems to reverberate with unanswered questions.
