Plot: When critically-acclaimed, tough, aging actress Thea Barfoed ends her rehab, she confronts a hard choice. During her heavy-drinking period she got divorced and lost custody of her two sons. Now she wants them to be a part of her life again. Her ex-husband Christian is quickly softened by her tough, manipulative, charming figure and agrees. She must prove to him and to herself that she is worth the try, but the hard life on stage and the ghosts of the past come knocking, and she's forced to face her inner voices. She is bound to give in to her faith and make the choice.
