The film unfolds a mystery that’s as compelling as any true crime docuseries, loaded with twists and cleverly constructed and conveyed through modern technology. It’s one of this year’s must-see genre gems.

In the brand new Searching sequel Missing, said to be a “thrilling roller-coaster mystery that makes you wonder how well you know those closest to you”…

Stuck thousands of miles away in Los Angeles, June creatively uses all the latest technology at her fingertips to try and find her before it’s too late.
“But as she digs deeper, her digital sleuthing raises more questions than answers…and when June unravels secrets about her mom, she discovers that she never really knew her at all.”
