The Awakening

Storyline

After surviving a horrendous car crash, which also involved his wife Svetlana and his son Kirill, Pavel Frolov's waking life appears to have split into two separate reality strands - in the first one Kirill has survived the crash, whereas in the second one Svetlana is the survivor. Each strand plays out alternately every morning that Pavel wakes up. Both realities are so vivid that Pavel believes he is living two separate lives. In each of them, he tries to bring the two realities together in a desperate attempt to find out who or what caused the accident. At the same time Pavel tries to restore himself in his son's esteem and his wife's affection, to make up for many years of neglect in which his work took priority.
