Sliding Doors Plot Synopsis:
In London, the public relation Helen is fired from her position in a PR company. While returning home, she does not catch the train in the subway. But in another possibility of her life, she catches the train in the subway. The story shows two parallel lives of Helen: in one life, she stays with her boyfriend Gerry, and in the other life, she finds that Gerry cheats her with Lydia and falls in love with James Hammerton.
Synopsis / Plot Summary: A London woman"s love life and career both hinge, unknown to her, on whether or not she catches a train. We see it both ways, in parallel.
Tagline: There are two sides to every story. Helen is about to live both of them ...at the same time. Romance was never this much fun.
