Samantha is an author and illustrator of storybooks for children. She loses her way and falls into
extreme sadness when her husband Billy is senselessly murdered. The only thing she can think about is
finding the person responsible.
She calls the investigator on the case with new leads but he rebuffs her
every effort. She decides to end
her life but everything she plans takes an unexpected twist instead.
This is good with an inside view into the lives of relatable people with a lot
of problems. Some of their problems are due
to circumstances and others because of
their environment. It has a
good message that doesn’t taste like strong medicine going down! One person can be important in a
community and the community can help just one person or many. 3 ½* (I liked this movie)
