What Return to You Is About
Set in 2008, the film follows “a powerful but lonely attorney,” played by Lindsay, who mistakenly receives an emotional DVD recorded by a dying woman for her husband, according to the official logline.
With only the clues on the disc to guide her, she sets out to track the man down and share his wife’s final message to him. Henry plays the husband she’s searching for.
