Range of Motion
Just as Lainey Berman (Rebecca De Mornay, The Hand that Rocks the Cradle, Risky Business) seems to have exhausted all hope that her husband will recover from a sustained coma, she finds that the strength of their love has the power to touch both the heart and head. The Berman's nightmare begins when Jay takes a dangerous fall and is hit on the head during an early morning run in the woods. Alive, but left virtually lifeless, Jay and his cash-strapped family endure one hopeless episode after another in what ends up being a cold lesson in the reality of health care economics. With Jay assigned to a depressing, second-rate rehabilitation center, it's up to Lainey to provide the nurturing and tireless effort needed to somehow create a miracle. Back home, she struggles to keep her family together. For support, she can only turn to her friend Alice, who is also facing her own domestic problems. This is more than a tale of a woman hoping for her soul mate's return. This is a story of families separating and coming together, of friendships, and of the strong bond that exists between two people that helps them get through difficult times, and in rare instances, helps them rediscover the gift of love. Based on the book by Elizabeth Berg.
