It stars Nicole Kidman as Christine Lucas, who wakes up each day with no memories of a chunk of her life. Every day she has to be reminded of who she is by her husband, Ben (Colin Firth) and come to terms with her life. When a neurologist, Dr Nasch (Mark Strong) contacts her to help her rebuild her memories and her life, all is not quite what it seems.

Adaptation-Induced Plot Hole: In the book, Claire works out that Mike is not Ben based exclusively on Christine's comments about him. She doesn't have contact details for Ben. In the film, Claire contacts Ben separately, and subsequently realises the problem. Which means Film Claire has had contact details with Ben for years. Dr Nasch tells Christine that Claire has been trying to contact her, yet she didn't think to call Ben at all? The film does not make it clear how long Christine has been living with "Ben", which raises the question of how the real Ben has not noticed his wife was taken from the mental health facility he had put her in. In the books, Christine has only been gone a few months, which is explained by Ben being on a long-term business trip abroad.
