A devastating, non-linear meditation on grief, redemption, and the weight of mortality, where a car crash shatters three lives and forces a reckoning with faith, rage, and the fragility of existence.

Paul Rivers, an ailing mathematician lovelessly married to an English émigré; Christina Peck, an upper-middle-class suburban housewife and mother of two girls; and Jack Jordan, a born-again ex-con, are brought together by a terrible accident that changes their lives.
