Synopsis by Jason Buchanan
A compassionate mother ponders sacrificing her own happiness in order to care for her drug-addicted daughter in this drama from Evergreen writer/director Enid Zentelis. Months after being injured in a car accident, Faye's daughter Sylvie still claims to suffer debilitating back pain. When Sylvie refuses physical therapy, her growing addiction to pain killers becomes apparent to everyone but Faye. Later, when handsome environmentalist Beckett comes to town, Faye begins to see him as the solution to all of her daughter's problems. Meanwhile, the growing friendship between Faye and Beckett may be the only thing that can open the devoted mother's eyes to the depths of her daughter's suffering. Once Sylvie's crippling pill addiction finally becomes clear to Faye, she must make a decision that no parent would wish upon their worst enemy.
