John Stevens is an unmotivated, struggling actor. His wife, Sara, is a driven accountant at an up-and-coming investment firm. Despite their differences, they are tied together by the love of their beautiful daughter, Helena. When Helena's chronic illness becomes too much for her teachers to handle, John leaves behind his dream of an acting career, and takes an open teaching position at Helena's school to be near his daughter. But when Sara is awarded a much-coveted promotion at her job, the fragile ties that hold them together start to break. John and Sara struggle to save their family, but their new circumstances coldly pull them further and further apart.
HELENA is the story of two flawed people who become so tied up in themselves that they lose sight of the most beautiful thing they share. This film about loss and sacrifice shows what we must face when the life we envision is not the life we lead.
