- Synopsis:
Elyse (Lisa Pepper) languidly meanders out of a cold, concrete, designer house mirroring a mausoleum, externalizing the spirit of her dead son, Cody (Griffin Thomas Hollander). She returns home disoriented, unwilling to join the family dinner, misconceives the gathering as a threat to her private life, and is unwarrantedly infuriated with her egocentric mother, Goldie (Fran Tucker), and her devoted husband, Steven (Aaron Tucker). In a psychotic blackout, Elyse commits vehicular manslaughter of her son and his nanny, Julia (Julieta Ortiz). Elyse isn't the only victim; her delusional thinking, narcissism, and violence annihilate her husband. Memory and hallucination intertwine to expose a history of trauma, revealing the truth: Elyse is Catatonic and institutionalized in a State Hospital. It's the care from Dr. Lewis (Anthony Hopkins) and the unconditional love from her nurse, David (Anthony Apel), that promise Elyse a new life. - Actors:
