Description: Truly interesting movie that keeps the viewers in suspense. Clay is a rich young businessman who is madly in love with his girlfriend Sam. To a complete happiness he needs only a healthy heart. He waits for a graft and on the eve of his heart surgery he secretly marries Sam against the will of his mother. Clay chooses his friend Dr. Jack Harper to operate him under the protest of his mother - she insists that responsibility for the procedure should placed on a famous and experienced Dr. Jonathan Neyer. Clay calm and confident to a moment when he experiences "anesthetic awareness" - a condition that leaves him conscious and pain-sensitive although paralysed.. He isnt able to move nor even to shout with pain. To make things worse it appears that Clay falls a victim of a plot schemed by the people most important to him. Totally paralysed begins a fight for his life...

It appeared that the film would be trivial but the plot twist was great - I recommend it!
