a suspenseful psychological thriller at the recently concluded Cannes Film festival.
Karri, who directed, produced and wrote the film at the age of 26, has masters in
computer science and electronics and a background in theater, but knew filmmaking
was his lifelong passion.
‘Where are you Sophia?’ is the true story of a local newspaper

ends up meeting Charlie, a young handsome man from Jersey Shores. She takes him
on a journey where he is introduced to the realms of the unknown which only he can
unravel as he faces the mysterious forces in the evil town of Highlands .
"Life
has been very hard while making a feature film during a recession," says Karri.

that you believe in with all your heart.
I have done it, recession was not an excuse
for me." The 96 minutes psycho thriller will keep audiences on the edge of their
seat with paranormal elements and characters with strange backgrounds and contradicting
stories. From Michael, a father searching for his missing daughter, to Xavier, a
stranger with hidden intentions and contradicting emotions, "Where are you Sophia?"
promises to be rich with edgy characters and an intelligent plot.
