In this funny, touching doc, a group of retirees are persuaded to get off the couch and make a horror movie about a killer rug...

Following a car crash that kills her boyfriend, piano student Laura is physically unhurt but emotionally distraught. A local woman takes her in, but she gradually realizes she's in the midst of an eerie, mysterious family situation.
