每个星期四上午十点,四十八岁的海事工程承包商 Daniel Hale 都会离开旧金山 Sacramento Street 的喧嚣,走进宁静的 Serenity Touch。三十年来,Daniel 一直在码头和海湾边从事艰苦的工程工作。他熟悉钢缆、混凝土、木材、拖船和风浪,也早已习惯把人生的伤痛藏在沉默之中。第一次走进三号房时,他想要的不过是九十分钟的安静,让疲惫的身体暂时放松下来。在那里,他遇见了 Nina。三十二岁的 Nina 用了八年时间,把自己的精品按摩馆打造成一处安静而体面的避风港。她沉着、自律,懂得用双手倾听别人身体里没有说出口的故事。然而,在她平静的外表和亲手打造的胡桃木墙面背后,也藏着一段她从不愿让任何人看见的过去。年轻时的一次错误,让 Nina 付出了失去自由的代价。重新开始以后,她一步一步挣扎着,为自己建立起一个值得尊重的人生。她学会了照顾别人,却从没有真正学会让别人走进自己的世界。一个星期四,又一个星期四。原本只是一次普通的按摩预约,渐渐变成了两个人生命中最安静、也最重要的九十分钟。按摩床上的沉默,Daniel 那位嘴巴刻薄却忠心耿耿的司机送来的新鲜点心,疗程结束后两个人一起喝下的热麦茶,以及那些越来越难以忽视的眼神和停顿--一点一点地改变着他们之间的距离。Daniel 不再看表。Nina 开始等待星期四的到来。两个都习惯了独自承担一切的人,慢慢发现,他们真正害怕的并不是过去,而是让另一个人看见真实的自己之后,仍然选择留下。当沉默终于无法再保护他们时,Daniel 和 Nina 必须做出选择:继续躲在各自花了几十年筑起的高墙之后,还是冒一次险,相信一个真正看见自己的人,然后一起走进阳光。Ninety Minutes 是一个关于耐心、克制、第二次机会与成年爱情的故事。它讲述两个经历过人生伤痕的人,如何在最意想不到的地方找到理解与信任,也找到一种他们都以为自己早已错过的东西--爱。有时候,改变一生,并不需要很久。只需要九十分钟。
