Nowhere Man

Tomas, a man with a seemingly wonderful life with his even more wonderful wife Sara, fakes his own death in order to disappear to an African island. He returns home broken and penniless five years later and immediately seeks out Sara, who has since remarried. After her initial shock, Sara turns the tables on Tomas in a desire for emotional revenge.
