Film Synopsis
Losing a loved one is never easy to cope with, but, for Sarah, watching her
18-year-old son die in the most horrible way she can imagine is more than
any mother should have to bear. And then, to make matters worse, her
husband walked out on her. Now she is reduced to a shadow of her former
self, a woman merely going through the motions of living. One night,
she is driving back home from the hospital where she works when she knocks
down a young man. He introduces himself as Arthur and, oddly, he seems
to be the same age as Sarah's son when he died. She decides to take
the boy back to her home so that she can treat his injuries, but as she does
so Sarah discovers that she is being followed by a mysterious killer...
