Plot: First time writer/director Jake Goldberger takes the helm for this thriller about a man who returns to his hometown after receiving a letter from his high school sweetheart, who claims to be dying. It’s been 25 years since Don McKay (Thomas Haden Church) turned his back on his hometown, and he never imagined he would ever return. But when a letter from his former girlfriend Sonny (Elisabeth Shue) appears in Don’s mailbox, he can’t resist visiting his old flame one more time, before her light disappears forever. When Don comes home and realizes that his memories of Sonny don’t match up with the woman she is now, it quickly becomes apparent that he harbors a shameful secret from years gone by. Meanwhile, Sonny’s doctor (James Rebhorn) and caretaker (Melissa Leo) don’t warm quickly to the returning visitor, and a chance run-in suddenly compounds Don’s buried secret.
