This journey sees her forging unexpected bonds with a motley crew of fellow inhabitants, each grappling with their own trials. Among her new-found companions are Jonathan Silverman's blind character, Marlee Maitlin's mentally-challenged woman, and Natalie Cole's blues singer, left with profound emotional and mental scars following a devastating accident.
