Soon after the movie "The Life Before Her Eyes" started, we saw two teenage girls, one blonde, one brunette, happily chatting in the school bathroom. Then they heard some strange sound, the sound of gun firing. Soon the door of the bathroom slammed open, they faced the gunman, one of their classmates. "Please don't kill us", the brunette begged. "Who says I am going to kill you both", their classmate grinned. "The question is, which one of you is going to die?"
We heard one gun shot.
In the next scene, we saw the blonde again. It had been 15 years since the tragedy and she had grown up and changed. She seemed to have a perfect life, married to the professor she had a crush on when she was a teenager, had an angel-like daughter, lived in a nice suburban house (with a porch). However, she seemed to be troubled. There was something on her mind. In one scene, her daughter asked her what is conscious and she immediately became disturbed. Why?
What really happened in the bathroom?
To tell you more about the movie will deprive you the experience of seeing it yourself. In the end, when all the puzzles are put together, you would want to start again. Like witnessing a perfect water drop on a leaf. It is short lived and will soon disappear into the atmosphere, but its beauty may haunt you forever.
