Jacksonville Film Festival 2009

Lisa and Jonathan are on their first date when they come upon a mysterious night time yard sale that changes the course of their evening dramatically. Nicola, a quirky gypsy woman has all kinds of odd junk scattered throughout her lawn. Another woman at the yard sale surreptitiously catches Jonathan’s eye, and he leaves Lisa’s side to “look around.” Left alone, Lisa picks up an old, empty photo album from the table. Nicola is suddenly beside her, imploring her to buy the book. She tells Lisa that somehow the empty album will guide her in finding the right man. Jonathan returns and offers to buy the photo album as a gift for Lisa. Back at Jonathan’s apartment, he disappears into the kitchen to pour some wine and prepare dessert. Lisa begins flipping through the book… and what she sees within its pages she can hardly believe. Before her very eyes are pictures of her and Jonathan’s life as it plays out into the future – Jonathan and Lisa dating, getting married, buying a house, celebrating the holidays, on vacation, etc. She can’t stop turning the pages, not sure what she is seeing, but desperate to find out more... Soon, the book begins to show her pictures of things Lisa never thought could happen, terrible things... When Jonathan returns with drinks in hand, Lisa is a different woman, and thanks to the book, she’ll never be the same again.
