Australian writer/director Corey Pearson, has said that Harmony is the first chapter in The Five Frequencies Saga, described as “…a supernatural story about the universal balance between the emotions of fear and love.”
I found it disjoined and irritable to watch even though it was casted well and all actors followed through, it had some good camera work and editing but fails as a story told, and left me thinking what a shame as given a bit more structure it may of worked.
Lets see how the young audience takes to it! Good news is I hear it has a China cimema release managed by Cowlick Entertainment. They have of course dedicated the film to Jessica Falkholt and her family.
