In the aftermath of a violent incident and near-death experience,
Sarah Lange is plagued by heavenly voices and dogged by a desire to
return “home.” Frightened by her desire to terminate her
existence on earth, she checks into a trauma center in Malibu,
California, and meets Dr. David Sutton, an intellectual, scientist,
reductionist, and someone who believes in nothing beyond his
immediate experience. David’s world is as divorced from mystery
and magic as Sarah’s is alive with and animated by it. Their
sessions open up a dialogue about the separation of worlds—one
easily defined and explained and one unknowable and waiting on the
other side of human experience. Even as his faith in his profession
fades, David struggles to bring his disturbed patient back to the
real world. In a desperate effort to define herself, Sarah
“escapes,” and David must decide how far he is willing to go to
save a patient, and ultimately, himself.
