A movie sound recordist accidentally records the evidence that proves that a car accident was actually murder and consequently finds himself in danger.

Foley, cosmetics, political cover-up: the art of artifice bleeds into every corner of a seamy, neon-prinked Philadelphia in this soulful love letter to ambient sound. Brian De Palma assembles a dream team of past collaborators—including John Travolta!—to make this pacy thriller sing and scream.
