Synopsis
Janie has been trapped in her stepfather’s basement for ten years. The cops bust her out, and then her uncle rescues her from the cops. Her uncle, a hotshot lawyer, is arrested. Janie is diagnosed with Posttraumatic Stress disorder. She is sent to a mental ward to receive treatment. There she meets David, a songwriter, who she eventually falls in love with, but not without the perils of Disassociation and mental angst. Disassociation is a condition where the patient loses perception of reality, and in her case returns to a child-like state.
In the mental ward Janie is molested, impregnated and forced to abort her baby. David enlists the help of her uncle Yonsen to try and bring justice for Janie, and ultimately to re-examine the rights of the mentally ill. The case almost makes it all the way to the Supreme Court, before tragedy strikes.
