Forced to flee one snowy Christmas Eve when her husband casually confesses to putting out a contract on her life, housewife Rachel leaves on comic nightmare for another when she takes up residence (and an entirely new identity) with a mysterious physiotherapist and his deaf-mute paraplegic wife. Beginning as a bizarre twist of fate, Reckless is a harrowing journey where everything Rachel flees from ultimately comes back to haunt her. Directed by Jeff Robinson. Jeff is a musician, actor and playwright. His acting career began in 1985 when he played Zachariah in Athol Fugard’s Bloodknot.
