In post-war England, renowned ghost hunter and skeptic Florence Cathcart (Rebecca Hall) is invited to investigate reported hauntings at a boys' boarding school in Cumbria.

Upon arrival, she meets governess Maud (Imelda Staunton), boy Thomas Hill (Dominic Westwood), and the enigmatic headmaster Mr. Mallory (Daniel Mays). Florence begins her investigation despite initial resistance from the staff. She soon discovers a connection between Walter's death and the ghostly occurrences, leading to her belief that these are not supernatural events but rather manifestations of grief and guilt. As she delves deeper, strange phenomena begin to occur, leaving Florence scared and questioning her skepticism.

Awakening (2011) is a British-French psychological horror film directed by Nick Murphy. Set in post-World War II England, the story revolves around Florence Cathcart, an author known for exposing ghostly hoaxes. When invited to investigate supernatural happenings at a boarding school, she initially dismisses it as another con but agrees to look into it after learning about Walter Portman's mysterious death. The film explores themes of grief, guilt, and skepticism while blending drama with horror elements. Despite being a period piece set in the 1920s, its narrative remains relevant due to its focus on human emotions and psychology.
