Plot
The story focuses on a man named Clay Christianson]]) who is in love with a woman named Sam (Alba) but is unwilling to tell his mother of their relationship. We later find out this is due to Sam being his mother's personal assistant. Clay suffers from a heart condition which requires a heart transplant to be carried out by a doctor who previously saved his life and is now his good friend. However during the surgery he encounters "anesthetic awareness" and finds himself awake and aware, but paralyzed. To escape the pain, Clay has an out of body experience and uncovers some sinister plots. Meanwhile Sam must wrestle with her own demons as a drama unfolds around them.
