Synopsis:
Forty years after two teenage lovers part ways, they are brought together under very unusual circumstances. The death of one brings the other back, only to revisit a past that is tormented by deception and a lie that has been hidden for far too long. The encounter with a six-month-old baby boy helps reveal a story that until then had never been told.
