We see them as young writers together in Paris. We see Matthew's heady experiences in Hollywood as his success as a screenwriter grows. We come to understand Anna's driven, fascinating, twisted soul through her journals, her magical practices and her love affair with the dark Colin Grace.Anna believed her psychic pain arose from sexual abuse as a child. With Matthew and his long-lost love Natalie, shaman Tony Cappelli performs a ceremony to free Anna's soul.
