Synopsis

In a high-rise, a young man jumps to his death. His ghost remains in the building, observing and consoling three households.

San San, fat, silent, and alone, hears the ghost of her mother constantly upbraid her. She futilely seeks the friendship of a wealthy woman with whom she was raised.

Ah Gu, a tofu soup vendor, is at odds with Lily, his materialistic wife, a Chinese immigrant who longs for something he cannot provide.

Meng spouts every moralistic bromide of the striving middle class, wears a T-shirt reading "My block is the cleanest," and is unhinged by his teenage sister May ("Trixie" to her boyfriend) who won't study, parties all night, and seems doomed by youth culture.

The seamless integration of music with the narrative enhances the overall viewing experience, creating a cohesive and immersive storytelling experience that stays with the audience long after the film has ended.

Mary Lewis
6/10

The soundtrack of 12 Storeys effectively captures the emotional depth and complexity of the characters' struggles. The haunting melodies and melancholic tones perfectly complement the themes of loneliness and alienation portrayed in the film.

Patricia Scott
3/10

The lack of variety in the musical themes throughout the film makes the soundtrack repetitive and monotonous. It becomes difficult to distinguish between different scenes or character arcs as the same musical motifs are used repeatedly.

1/10

The soundtrack of 12 Storeys fails to capture the emotional depth and complexity of the characters' struggles and relationships. The music feels generic and uninspired, missing the opportunity to enhance the storytelling.

The haunting vocals and ethereal tones in certain tracks evoke a sense of longing and introspection, mirroring the inner struggles and conflicts of the characters in the film.

6/10

On the other hand, some tracks in the soundtrack of 12 Storeys feel repetitive and lack variation, failing to fully enhance the storytelling and character development. The music at times becomes background noise rather than a powerful narrative tool, missing opportunities to elevate key moments in the film.

Deborah Jackson
3/10

The soundtrack of 12 Storeys feels disconnected from the urban setting and themes of the film. The music fails to create a sense of atmosphere or enhance the sense of place, leaving the audience feeling detached from the story and characters.
