Spoilers

The official synopsis reads: "A young mother attempts to pick up the pieces after a horrible accident damages her memory, but she soon begins to suspect that her husband’s indiscretions are what caused her suffering and her whole family might still be in danger." Is it based on a true story? Based on early buzz, it was thought to be an original story dramatized for viewing purposes. However, The Cinemaholic has confirmed that it is scripted and has no resemblance with any real incident.
