Synopsis
Diana (Jemma Redgrave) is a high class young woman with a troubled past, who is on the verge of marrying the caddish Oliver (Mark Greenstreet). Spending the night in her old and spooky family mansion, Diana stares into a mirror and begins experiencing terrifying dreams. She sees her past, present and future, while at the same time entering a dark dimension of her own. One day Diana is visited by Jenny (Kathleen Wilhoite), an American tourist and also a victim of a turbulent past. Without knowing how or why, Diana suddenly pulls Jenny into her nightmarish world.
