Synopsis

Laura, 27 years old, lives alone in the suburbs of a big city. She learns that her father is in a coma, after a serious car accident. She decides to visit him regularly at the hospital as a last opportunity to settle old scores and perhaps to get revenge…
She tells him the horror of her childhood when she was abused by him. But life is unpredictable and Laura’s desire for revenge causes painful memories to come to the surface. She has to face up to her own past. She ends up reconciled, with herself and with life.
