More Description"Everything happens for a reason. Either that or everything can be rationalized." What are memories? What are we but beings composed by the things we remember and know we are? And what do we become when those memories are taken from us or, for some reason, are buried deep into our cores?"The necessity of knowing who we are and the consciousness about where we've come from and the place we are going to suddenly became ethereal. (...) The emptiness of feeling or being empty. The emptiness of becoming empty and falling into a limbo of oblivion."When Jason finds Clarice in the middle of the woods, hurt and without memories, he decides to help her and, with the difficult support of his son, Marco, he learns that those questionings are even more fragile than our own being in the world. As he helps Clarice to recall who she was and what took her to that place, he also starts to drown into his own mind and memories that, for so long, he had kept hidden after losing his wife three years before. And it all gets worse when he finds out that, not much far from there, a crime is being investigated after a family was murdered and husband and wife disappeared...In a nearby city, a detective is called to help with the investigation of a crime that happened in the mountains, in which a family was the victim of an unknown assailant, but it all changes when he gets involved with and accepts the help of Georgia, a stunning stranger who takes him to a world he didn't know and, probably, will never forget. Among pages of a journal, reflections upon things we recall, sightings of a presumably dead wife and the suspense brought by the nearby crimes, "The Woman Hidden" brings a deep reflection about what are the so-called abusive relationships and the impacts it may have on the lives of everyone around such tragedy with the realization that the reality in which we live in and recall not only changes according to the perspective, but also according to the point of view of the observer. And when the observer changes, it all might change as well.
