A woman vanishes just before the wedding, and the fiancé's desperate search ends in a shocking truth he must face as her true identity is revealed.

Los Angeles Times

It's a poignant conflict that the appealing Lee handles with deep sensitivity as well as, unfortunately, the sporadic overreaction.

Rated: 3.5/5

The lead female actor is great and the direction keeps moving the contemplative and complicated plot going at a pleasant pace. I enjoyed it very much.
