synopsis
A made for TV movie that fails to maintain speed to the end, this is the story of a young woman who, recently separated from her husband, is now living with her elderly Mother, who is becoming increasingly more senile. Unable to cope with the stress of her existence, she loses control. Ostensibly a story of parental abuse, it tends to lose momentum toward the end and degenerates into melodrama.
