Each melody her husband Ray plays returns her to a different chapter of her life - a person, a place, a version of herself she thought was lost to time. When she asks for songs from the year they met, Ray knows where she's going: back to the beginning, when he was leading a threadbare existence, struggling with demons and doubt, and she was living a lie, having buried herself in someone else's idea of who she should be. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne year.
