Based on the poem, "Elephant in The Room" by Terry Kettering, Purgatory is a place, a dark and surreal room where conversations are allowed to take place but there will always be a mask, an elephant...a blatant "untruth" that should not be spoken of. Denial; a word that would perfectly sum up the experience of being in Purgatory. How do you confront your past, when you have no idea who and where you are?
Dr. Terry Ward is a renowned Child Psychologist who one day, ends up in a room with a strange old man. As their conversation progresses, bits and pieces of her past come back to her, culminating in the revelation of the sequence of events that led up to her being in Purgatory.
