Jessica Alba stars with Hayden Christensen and Terrence Howard in Awake - a psychological thriller that tells the story about a man (Christensen) that undergoes a major heart operation while experiencing a phenomenon called "anesthetic awareness,” and finds out his doctor is specializing in evil.

Anesthetic Awareness is an occurrence where during surgery there is not enough anesthetic medication for the patient's body weight, which leaves them awake but paralyzed throughout the operation.

As various obstacles present themselves, his wife (Alba) must make life-altering decisions while wrestling with her own personal demons. Did she plan the murder? Or is she simply a victim, like her husband? The poster reads: “Every year 21 million people go under anesthesia. One in 700 remain awake the entire time.
