Jessica Goldberg has been hired to write "Since Walker Left," a remake of the 2003 French film "Since Otar Left" for Vertigo Entertainment and Focus Features reports Reuters.
Set in Tennessee and New York, the story tracks the lives of a mother and daughter whose one joy comes from the regular letters sent to them from the family's adored son, Walker.
When the daughter finds out that Walker has suddenly died, she tries to conceal the truth from her mother, changing the course of their lives forever.
Goldberg is a playwright and graduate of New York's Juilliard school.
