Full synopsis
Synopsis: The Taylor family was shaped by the rugged mountains of Oregon. They've hiked and climbed these trails for years. But it's not the wilderness that may claim the lives of Liz and Jim Taylor. It's a decision their son Chris -- a competitive rock climber -- must make. Following their tragic car crash, does he do what he believes is right and take them off life support? Not if their daughter Sarah has anything to say about it.

While Chris and Sarah struggle with life and death decisions, Jim and Liz struggle to simply wake up. Together they have traveled back to an early 70's dreamworld -- to the time of their youth in small town Kansas. Jimmy is 18 again, but the eight-year difference in their ages means Lizzie is now only 10! And her abusive father is turning her coma-induced dream into a nightmare.

With the help of Jimmy's reckless and fun-loving friends, Casey and Teri, he and Lizzie must make it to Widow's Bluff, their only path to salvation. But first Jimmy must find Lizzie and confront the fears they both have carried through the years.

"Deadpoint" is the supernatural love story that shows us -- with laughter, suspense and outright thrills -- that the lives we live are built upon the love we share.

    Creative Notes:
    The present day story remains mostly the same, but Liz and Jim Taylor now are the same age and go back to their days as 20-something college students. In present day, they're separating, so in their dreamworld they must rekindle their love and resolve their problems to find their way back to the present. This version allows a more mature relationship during their coma-induced dreams.
