Synopsis
Though only 26, Frankie (Diane Kruger) is a burned out model. She had it all as a high flying model until the pressures of the job become too much. As she falls from her life on the catwalk in to the stark contrast of life in a mental hospital, the film highlights these two distinctly separate worlds as she becomes a victim and has a breakdown from which she has to painfully rebuild her life... somehow.
