Synopsis

27-year-old Laura lives alone in the big city. She has difficulties to step into intimate relationship and she talks in cold conversations. When Laura learns that her father is in a coma after a serious car accident, she decides to visit him regularly at the hospital. Her visit however is the last opportunity of the daughter to settle old scores and perhaps to get revenge. Every day she tells the father the horror of her childhood when she was abused by him. Moving only between the hospital ward and her room, Laura is caged by her own past and bitter episodes. But life is unpredictable and Laura's desire for revenge causes painful memories to come to the surface. She must face up to her own past which has yet to be resolved.
