A mother is distraught with the loss of her young daughter Rosie. She's desperately trying to process the steps of grieving when she suddenly starts to lose a grip on her reality. The chaos surrounding her leads her to believe her young daughter may still be alive. However, when she reaches out to those around her, no one believes her story, so she's forced to figure out what is happening to her on her own. After growing suspicious of Australian couple Bernie and Claire, Lizzie elects to gather DNA evidence to prove or disprove her suspicion; she forces Claire to confess to her husband Bernie that Lola, their daughter, is Rosie.
