From slashfilm.com:
Gustavo Hernández’s The Silent House is supposedly based on a true story of a daughter and father who are hired to renovate a boarded-up broken down cottage in a rural area of Uruguay. They plan to spend the night at the house and begin repairs the following morning. But the Teenage daughter begins to hear noises from the upstairs, and that is where this haunted house story begins.
The film is shot completely handheld, and the house is lit using a combination of candles and lanterns. The film has an incredible sense of mood and plays well with the darkness and small spaces. Cinematographer Pedro Luque does the best he can with the restrictions in place, hitting planned marks almost every minute or so, giving the film some spectacular cinematic framing. The teenage lead actress Florencia Colucci gives an unbelievable performance, especially considering the many restrictions presented by the 79-minute take.
