This gripping teen horror film will make you shudder!
Summer vacation after 6th grade and twelve-year-old Elvira is going on a camp. She and her two roommates, Meja and Bea, will stay in room 213 – where no one has lived for sixty years. Soon inexplicable events start to happen. A letter with an ancient handwriting leads the girls to an old lady in a run-down house in the woods. The lady tells them that a girl died at the camp sixty years ago. And since then a red-haired girl has been sneaking around in the corridors at night.
“In making Room 213 the most important issue for me has been to tell a thrilling ghost story with the same seriousness and sincerity that horror stories are told, portraying girls during middle school age, at the threshold of entering one’s teens – too smart to be called kids, but not quite ready to grow up.” (Emelie Lindblom)
