Storyline

Soul-searching drama depicting the profound personal transformations experienced by a powerful advertising executive and a stressed-out lawyer over the course of one life-altering day in mystical Sedona, Arizona. Successful ad woman Tammy is driving from Portland to Phoenix to meet a big potential client when she's run off the road by a small airplane making an emergency landing. At first infuriated by the eccentric locals, she gradually begins to suspect that she may have ended up in Sedona for a reason as she waits for the local mechanic to repair her car and faces her difficult past for the very first time. Meanwhile, amidst the towering red boulders, workaholic lawyer Scott, his partner Eddie, and their two sons embark on a hiking trip that turns unexpectedly tense when seven-year-old Denny disappears into the sun-scorched landscape.

User Reviews

It's fate baby it's fate

I'm guessing that the them of Sedona is that Sedona is impossible to resist. Sooner or later its laid back ways will get you although it takes to nearly the end of the film before Frances Fisher gives in.

Sedona has Fisher who is a high priced Phoenix ad executive going on a road trip and passing through Sedona on the way to meet a most important client in Phoenix. One of those incredible happenings occures when a small craft airplane lands on the highway and forces Fisher to crash her car.

She takes it to Barry Corbin's garage for repair and that's going to slow for her taste. She tries renting another car and that sets off all kinds of strange occurences. It's like fate was keeping her there.

The other story was that partners Seth Peterson and Matthew J. Williamson were taking there two boys hiking and one of them gets lost. Some nervous moments for all concerned. And of course the stories are connected in a mystical Sedona way.

This Arizona small city has become a Mecca for all kinds of new age types and the film's best moments are with Fisher going slightly bonkers with the LaDeeDa attitude of all the citizens. I'd have been going around the bend myself in that situation.

Pleasant enough film and essentially a big plug for the tourist trade to come to Sedona.
