[edit] Synopsis
In this film, a high school student named Nick Powell (played by Chatwin) is assaulted and left for dead after a tragic case of mistaken identity. However, he fails to "cross over" to the afterlife but instead remains in limbo between life and death, thus becoming literally invisible. As an invisible being, he watches helplessly as his mother (played by Harden) and the police search for his attacker, unaware that he is merely hours away from perishing completely. Nick must find his attacker, Annie (played by Levieva), before his body expires. She is a troubled teen who is neglected (thus metaphorically invisible to others) after the death of her mother and is on the run from the law.
This film is the English remake of the Swedish film Den Osynlige, which was based on the novel of the same name by Mats Wahl.
[edit] MPAA rating

[edit] Filming locations
The high school scenes in this movie were filmed at Burnaby Mountain Secondary School in Burnaby, British Columbia, Canada (the name of the school remains unchanged in the film). The rest were filmed at Seattle, Washington.
The classrooms were digitally edited with multiple classrooms mixed in. It is said to be an inside joke for Burnaby Mountain Secondary School.
The setting of the film is in a fictional "Burnaby" in Washington state.
