Rebecca’s life takes an unexpected twist as she is drawn into a cemetery by a voice with an unusual deal to propose – a one-day trip to paradise in exchange for a day in Rebecca’s body. Worried by her behaviour, boyfriend Peter follows Rebecca, but as the exchange occurs, a bright light and thunderclap are misunderstood by nearby police and they are arrested. With their story and behaviour far from normal, the pair are transferred to a psychiatric unit, but with her body incarcerated, what will become of Rebecca's soul?
