Plot Synopsis
Template:Spoiler The movie centers around lonely Dr. Kate Forster (Sandra Bullock), who, on a winter morning in 2006 reluctantly leaves the beautiful lake house that she has been living in for a job in a Chicago hospital.
On her way to Chicago, she leaves a note for the lake house's new tenant, asking him to kindly forward her mail and telling him about the paw prints that were by the front door.
Alex Burnham (Keanu Reeves), the new tenant, however, sees a different lake house, one which was neglected, dirty, and there were certainly no paw prints. He disregards Kate's letter until a few days later, he sees a stray dog who runs across the freshly paint, leaving paw prints where she said they would be.
He writes back to Kate, only to discover that they are separated in time by two years. As Kate and Alex continue to correspond through the mailbox, they find themselves falling in love for the other. Determined to bridge the distance between them at last and unravel the mystery behind their extraordinary connection, they tempt fate by arranging to meet. But, by trying to join their two separate worlds, they could risk losing each other forever.
