But when Marshall returns home to Louisiana, it becomes clear to them both that he is not the man he used to be. Marshall's memories of home have disappeared, and he suffers from violent, vivid nightmares night after night. Struggling to regain their life together, Stella reintroduces him to their town, reminding him of his history and their love story and watching glimpses of recognition dance in his eyes.
