[edit] Plot

Dr. Reineger (Ed Gildersleeve) is a child neuro-psychologist who has become confident that the twin Anna (Nikki Haddad) has a rare form of autism, Asperger's Syndrome, rendering her unable to cope with reality. As for her blind sister, Sarah (Jessi Haddad), the doctor cannot say for sure why her visions map so closely to Anna's. At home, their father (Travis Poelle) leaves the family. To escape the pain, the girls sink deeper and deeper into their imaginations. When their mother (Courtney Sanford) is killed in an earthquake, the sympathetic Reineger takes in the now-orphaned twins, placing them in his institution and studying them, while dealing with his own struggle concerning the girls' prophetic visions. The girls escape the institution. The subsequent search party cannot find them.
