1990 was the year the first letter was written. Through the writings of a broken woman, from this letter and the others that followed, the puzzle of a fragmented mind is built.
Clinging to the memories that haunted and comforted her, she tries to rebuild her broken identity, confessing her most secret thoughts to the great loves that she has lost: her husband and her daughter.
