Deracination

Horus, a forensic anthropologist at the local university, affords his wife the luxury of keeping her past secret from him. Rushing home to find his wife in the hospital, he realizes it's her past that brought them together five years ago, and not a random act of violence. Horus pushes Monet to reveal her past in an attempt to stop the cyclical violence that surrounds her, but soon recognizes that her fagade of suburban bliss is what's stopping her from letting him in. The fabric of their lives is unraveling before him, and Horus finds himself on an inconceivable journey through the dark realm of his wife's past that threatens their marriage, and could destroy his professional career along the way.
