Synopsis: Henry Harper is a successful novelist who has it all. But after surviving a recent trauma he finds himself haunted by a dream that terrifies him. Convinced that the only way to understand what the dream means is to write his way through it, Henry decides to go to a remote second home to begin work on his next novel, a thriller. While on his way there he encounters a strangely familiar drifter who confronts him with information that threatens to turn everything he knows to be true, upside down.

- Didn't she?

- No.

Didn't the phone break?

Oh, my God.

How'd you sleep?

What?

The dream.

You didn't have it, did you?

The dream?

Of course you didn't have it,

'cause you figured out

what it means now.

No, no, Chris. Listen to me.

F*** the dream, okay?

I'm sick. I'm sick.

I'm dying here, man.

My stomach's cramping up.

I need help.

- It's killing me.

- I know. I know. Shhh.

It's okay, okay.

Goddamn, that was inten...

That was intense.

How are you? You okay?

I'm fine.

I'm going to the bathroom.

- Don't go anywhere.

- No, I gotta get going.

Henry, don't run away.

Chris!

Chris! I'm bleeding!

Chris! I'm hemorrhaging.

You gotta call me an ambulance.

Whoa, whoa. Shhh.

It's okay. It's all

part of the process.

Mmm. Process? What process?

The dying process.

What did you do to me?

Shhh. It's all right.

It's all right.

Oh, my God. You poisoned me.

You f***ing poisoned me.

I knew something didn't

feel right about this.

What hasn't

felt right, Henry? Think.

What hasn't felt right?

What'd you do to me?

Hmmm? How'd you find me?

How'd you know I'd

be in that diner?

What's that?

The earth elements

are leaving you, Henry.

The blood, the water, all your

fluids are draining out of you.

That's very good.

Why did you do this to me?

Why did you do this to me,

you sick f***?

Somebody help!

Somebody help!

I'm here to help you, Henry.

No. Get away from me.

Get away from me!

You're not my brother.

Of course I'm your brother.

You know that.

My brother died when

he was 19. He drowned.

You could be anybody!

Were you in the bathroom

down the road

a little while ago?

You're using all your energy.

What the f*** are you, man?

It's getting harder to breathe.

Are you f***ing stalking me?

That's good, Henry.

Relax into it.

It'll all be over soon.

I promise.

F*** you.

Henry, listen to me.

There's not much time left.

You have come to the most

important moment of your life.

To the gap between

life and death.

Your whole world is dissolving.

Your body is dissolving.

And all you have

left now is your mind.

And for the first time you

see it for what it really is,

the architect

of your entire being.

You created all this.

You created me.

I only say what

you want me to say,

what you need me to say.

It's your journey, Henry.

Not dying.

Henry who attacked you

in the dream?

A man.

What man?

What did he look like?

He was big.

What was he wearing?

Gloves.

What type of gloves?

- Dark gloves.

- Henry, think again.

Think. What...

What else was he wearing?

I don't know.

I don't know. A suit...

No, he wasn't, Henry. Think.

See what's there. Think harder.

He shined a light in my eyes.

He stabbed... He stabbed me.

He stabbed me.

The operation was a failure.

When they opened you up,

they saw that the cancer

had spread everywhere.

There was nothing they could do

for you but send you home,

to die with dignity.

You created all this.

The nightmare, the new book,

the trip.

Meeting me.

Having your brother back

in your life to protect you.

This was all you

trying to figure out something

you didn't understand.

See, but now you do.

Now you know you're

not afraid of dying.

You're just afraid

of having no choices.

But, Henry, there's still

one choice you can make.

You can choose to let go.

Henry, please.

Make that choice.

Don't let it be made for you.

Rob? Rob, he's doing it again.

What did Doctor Park say?

We have permission

to up his morphine,

and I think it'll help.

Is he in pain?

No, no, that's not pain.

That's, uh, that's just

more of a reflex, really.

Doctors like to call that

the sound of hard effort.

And it can be very difficult

to die, but it's not pain.

Rob?

Would it be okay if I had

a minute alone with him?

Of course.

Just call me if you need me.

So...

I love you.

It's okay to let go.

Let go, honey. Let go.

I'll be okay.

Just let go. Let go.

"Leaves in an act

of great faith,"

"let go of their branches."

"They fall to the ground,

majestically."

Hey.

What?

I don't wanna go.

I don't wanna leave.

I don't want you to go either.

I've loved every minute of it.

Every minute of it.

I love you.

Hey, I don't want

you worrying about me.

I'll be fine.

Really. I'll be fine.

I love you, Amy.

I'll be okay, promise.

Oh, my God.

I don't want her

to suffer anymore.

I know you don't.

But, Henry,

suffering is a choice.

The tighter you hold on,

the more you suffer

and the more you suffer,

the more Amy suffers.

What do I do, Chrls?

What do I do?

You let go.

Henry, have great faith.

Fall majestically.
