Synopsis

Martha's life as an intelligent, highly successful social worker is shattered when her husband is killed suddenly in a hit and run accident. Although the police are initially interested because of Thierry's government connections, the case is quickly closed and Martha is left dealing with grief, a disturbing loss of certainty and a nagging thought that she needs to know what happened on that fateful day. As she tries to move on, more questions than answers arise and Martha begins to unravel. Will a move to France help or make things worse?
