    • Synopsis
    • A tale of deliverance. Laura, 30-something, lives alone on the outskirts of a large town. She hears that her father is in a coma, following a serious driving accident. She decides to visit him at the hospital – at last an opportunity to settle old scores, perhaps even get revenge.
      Laura ends up visiting her unconscious father regularly. She sits by him, recounting the horror of her childhood abuse - by him. But life is unpredictable, and Laura’s desire for revenge leads to painful reunions with her past. She will have to face her own history.
      She ends up reconciled. Not with her father, but with her childhood, herself and indeed life.
