The film"s page
Simon est archéologue et vit depuis peu un amour passionné avec Elisabeth. Pris d'un terrible malaise, Simon est considéré comme mort par le médecin. Pourtant, il réapparaît devant Elisabeth quelques minutes plus tard, bel et bien vivant. Simon est désormais un revenant, il a côtoyé la mort et n'est plus le même. Le couple interroge alors deux amis à eux pasteurs, qui ne peuvent qu'expliquer l'événement par la religion. Mais Simon et Elisabeth sont un couple de scientifiques athées. Leur seule croyance est leur amour. Lorsque Simon est victime d'une nouvelle crise cardiaque, il fait promettre à Elisabeth de le rejoindre dans l'au-delà. Elisabeth le suivra-t-elle jusqu'au bout ?
