Hereafter tells the story of three people who are haunted by mortality in different ways. George (Matt Damon) is a blue-collar American who has a special connection to the afterlife. On the other side of the world Marie (Ccile de France) a French journalist has a near-death experience that shakes her reality. And when Marcus (George McLaren and Frankie McLaren) a London schoolboy loses the person closest to him he desperately needs answers. Each on a path in search of the truth their lives will intersect forever changed by what they believe might--or must--exist in the hereafter.
