Overview

A couple travel to the mountains to talk about their marital crisis. When the wife falls during the hike and only survives seriously injured, she is at the mercy of her pathologically jealous husband, who now makes her life a living hell, vacillating between loving care and hateful torment. A thematically confused thriller that even the routine staging cannot save.
