Synopsis

What if you past vanished? Who would you become?
Hannah, a forty-six year old author plagued with anxiety, and her partner James, an HR recruiter caught in a headlock of grief over his brother’s death, are as desperate for inner peace as they are clueless about how to find it.
But when they embark on a sunny bike ride shortly after moving to the San Francisco Bay Area, a split-second decision propels them into different versions of their lives—ones they don’t recognize as their own. With a mental fog obscuring their recent past and who they were, they are forced to dig inside themselves to figure out who they are now. Surprising discoveries about the nature of the universe send them on a psychological journey towards who they can be.
Will they be able to let go of their deeply ingrained subconscious beliefs about life and themselves to embrace the unfamiliar potentials they now face?
Reminiscent of the film Sliding Doors and novels The Midnight Library by Matt Haig and The Two Lives of Lydia Byrd by Josie Silver and The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho.

Hannah and James recently moved to the bay area and on individual bike rides they both slip into an alternate universe with their prior life right on the tip of the tongue like the wisp of a remembrance that you almost remember but not quite. They have their basic info down but it’s a small details......more
