Synopsis

Kate Forster is moving out of her all-glass lake house. She is a doctor and has just begun to work in a hospital in Chicago, so she is moving to a new flat in the center of the city. Alex Wyler is the new owner of the lake house, a young architect who's working on the construction of a new housing complex on the outskirts of the city. Alex and Kate maintain a correspondence, talking about house matters, sending each other letters, which are put in the lake house's letterbox. But a strange thing is happening: they both find out that the letterbox is a kind of time communication channel between the year 2004, in which Alex lives, and the year 2005, in which Kate lives. After sending each other many letters talking about their lives, and Kate talking to Alex about how life will be in two years, it seems like they're falling in love with each other, but they might never meet because of the time distance. Nevertheless, Kate remembers that in 2004 she forgot a book (Jane Austen's "Persuasion") in a train station, and she asks Alex to go to that place in that precise moment. Maybe her future will change when Alex decides to meet Kate's other self in the past, although she has a boyfriend. They will learn that playing with time could be dangerous for both of them, but Alex will take everything into his hands to finally meet Kate in the future.
