Ree is a 2022 Indian Tamil-language feature film directed by Sundharavadivel and starring Prasanth Srinivasan, Gayatri Rema and Prasath. It was released on October 7, 2022.[1][2]
Plot
[edit]Reema is a girl who longs to help others, and who is very keen helping neighbours in their homes. As a result she is seen as meddling. Due to this, Reema happens to be a murder suspect for acquaintance to a husband and wife, who quarrel next door, resulting in the wife’s murder at the hands of her husband. Reema's attitude towards her neighbours is not changed even after this tedious incident.
Because of the situation, Reema with her psychiatrist husband Mugil relocate to a new house on the outskirts of the city. To her surprise, a strange noise emanates from next door neighbours of this new house too. At first Reema thinks the house is a haunted, and she asks Mugil if they can sell their new house and to move elsewhere. Later she finds out that next door is not a haunted house, but a heart surgeon Sagul, resides there with his wife Mumtaj and daughter Fatima.
Nevertheless, the strange sound continues to emanate from next door, so that Reema believes someone other than Sagul's family reside in their house. The more she digs, the more trouble she brings upon herself, including a murderous attack from the mysterious man next door. Reema with her police brother go to fight with Sagul's family. They argue as there is no one else in their home but themselves, which creates suspicion of Reema's mental stability. Mugil also admits to Sagul that Reema is not mentally stable enough, and Sagul agrees to help Mugil to cure Reema.
