GENRE: Thriller, Drama
LOGLINE:

Set in the 1950’s, a troubled housewife agrees to an experimental treatment to recover her lost memories. Through the treatment, she learns how to communicate with another version of herself from a parallel universe, and attempts to recreate her traumatic past.

SYNOPSIS:

Although she looks the part, Adalia Pierce is NOT your typical 1950s housewife. After losing her father and giving birth to son on the same day, she has experienced severe memory loss, and doesn’t remember anything for an entire year after this traumatic event.

Her obsession with recovering her lost memories causes increasingly erratic and troubling behavior.

Without consulting her deeply concerned husband Robert, she agrees to undergo experimental treatments and discovers the sinister truths about her past.

The experimental treatments gift Adalia the ability to communicate with herself in parallel universes. She hopes to hone this new power to alter her tragic past and save those she loved and lost along the way.

I teach to avoid the passive voice.
