"A woman comes home to an empty house and a letter on the kitchen table. Her partner is gone. He isn't coming back. Reeling, she regresses memory by memory to the day they met and progresses memory by memory to the present day looking for fault, deceit, and the truth, if the truth is to be found at all, between the jagged edges of love and heartache. From here to there and back again, she resurrects car crashes, bar fights, torrid affairs, phantoms from the past, and visions of the future. All of it Agathe. All of it 6:00 p.m. to 7:27."
