Aria watched her mother killed at the age of 6. Her only hope is to simply survive to the next day while she suffers the physical and mental abuse dished out by her father, Ray. Aria's one escape is the comforting voice that can sooth her from inside her mind after each attack by her father. Is Aria crazy or is there actually someone in Aria's head?
