Searching

Dir. Aneesh Chaganty · United States of America · English

No one is lost without a trace.

What happens

After David Kim's 16-year-old daughter goes missing, a local investigation is opened and a detective is assigned to the case. But 37 hours later and without a single lead, David decides to search the one place no one has looked yet, where all secrets are kept today: his daughter's laptop.

What the critics said

Notable Critics

"Search doesn't require any further narrative tricks to prove Chagnaty's ability to use seemingly huge constraints to weave a unique film, one that maintains a near-perfect connect with its audience."

— Kate Erbland

"It aims for and earns genuine emotion rather than cheap thrills."

— Christy Lemire
