What it is about

Margot, a brilliant young scientist with a troubled marriage, disappears inexplicably while hiking with her husband Sam and a group of friends. A few weeks later, she miraculously reappears the day of her own memorial service. Margot is clearly not the same as before the accident. Nevertheless, Sam sees his wife’s miraculous reappearance as a second chance.
