Reawakening

Synopsis

John (Jared Harris) and Mary (Juliet Stevenson) have lived in an agonizing limbo of grief and guilt for the past ten years. Their only child, Clare, ran away from home when she was fourteen and no trace of her whereabouts has ever been found. When Clare returns, now a young woman of twenty-four, Mary is overjoyed. But John comes to believe that Clare is not who she claims to be. As old tensions resurface, a gripping search for the truth unfolds.
REAWAKENING is the powerful, psychologically piercing and searingly emotional second feature from BAFTA-nominated writer/director Virginia Gilbert.
