Hannah, a gifted pianist and Grammy winning composer, has been looking forward to seeing her lover, John, an actor again after months of separation. When he dies suddenly only days before he was to arrive and their secret relationship is made a public internet scandal, Hannah isn't sure she has anything left to live for. In a chance encounter, she meets Sophie, an aspiring young journalist. Sophie is anxious to write Hannah's side of her and John's story. At first, Hannah angrily refuses, but ultimately decides to let Sophie write their story, and reveals a tragic secret that no one, not even John, knew. Alternating between the past and the present, this story tells of two parallel journeys Hannah takes; one back into her past and one in the present as she narrates the events of her life.
