📖 Storyline

Edna Mae Macaulay experiences the afterlife for a brief time after a car accident that kills her husband. As she begins her long process of physical healing, she discovers that she has the ability to heal physical infirmities. While most people simply accept her gift, her lover (Sam Shepard) becomes mentally unbalanced and dangerous because she does not place the healings within a religious context. —Michael Cieslak <mcieslak@ix.netcom.com>Edna Mae Macaulay experiences the afterlife for a brief time after a car accident that kills her husband.
