Short summary

Francis (Miller) Collins just misses his train to Memphis one stormy night. While waiting on the next train he meets three strangers - Eric, Constance and Violet. Will these four young professionals become friends, lovers; or will they simply go their separate ways and never see each other again? Like Schrodinger's Cat, all of the possible outcomes of this chance encounter are equally real, but only one will come to pass. Or will it? The story line is non-linear, moving back and forth in time over a six year period. These four strangers who meet by happenstance at a train station, are 'called back' to the train station to relive that initial meeting, where slightly different actions result in sometimes drastically altered futures. The decisions they make, the words they speak and the actions they take during this initial meeting dictate how their future relationships play out.

Both Valerie Jane Parker and Inge Uys are originally from Africa. Valerie was born in Zimbabwe while Inge was born in South Africa.

    What seems to be a small choice at the time can lead to far-reaching consequences. This film begins in a train station in which four strangers meet. The conversations they have set the stage for their future relationships with one another. Every choice each person makes is meaningful--it is like the Butterfly Effect in Chaos Theory--a small change in initial conditions can lead to large changes in the future.

    The acting is excellent, and I felt an emotional tie to the characters. These are characters an audience can care about and with whom they can sympathize and emphasize as they watch the film. It is a deeply moving, powerful film that will leave the audience members thinking about their own choices in life and the consequences that arise from them, both good and bad. I highly recommend this movie.
