Summary:

Robert Altman’s meticulous conundrum of schiziophrenic subjectivity becomes a more malevalent trap by the minute. A man and his wife visit their weekend cottage located in  a scenic but isolated corner of the countrytside. The man is in good spirits but has his mind on other things. He doesn't pay much attention to his wife's concerns. She's experiencing a curious imbalance in which she ‘sees’ a former lover who was killed years ago in a plane crash. A family friend now drops by to visit with his 12 year old daughter. The wife isn't always sure whether these visitors are real or imaginary. Her deterioration continues implacably, leading to inevitably tragic results.
