Forgive, Forget, Resurrect

Rebecca is a successful writer, author of several books, going through tough times. Inspiration has abandoned her, and for two years she has not written a single line. Her once dearly loved husband has grown distant, and her teenage twin son and daughter have their own lives. The phone, which recently rang off the hook with calls from journalists and publishers, is silent. She is increasingly tormented by the thought that she is no longer needed by anyone. In this state, one evening she goes into her favorite bistro and strikes up a conversation with a stranger named Lino. He unexpectedly tells her that for many years he has been suffering from the separation from his beloved whom he could not hold on to. Lino's story leaves Rebecca deeply moved. Perhaps he will become the hero of her new novel? Or something more?
