The title of the film comes from the New York Times' refusal to acknowledge homosexual relationships in their obituary section during this period.

When patients and staff hear the tortured voice of a little girl crying through the halls, they are dismissive of any suggestion of mysticism or unseen powers … but at their own peril.
