09/14/2020 This story to me hearkens back to Strange Days, but with a way more compelling and down to earth atmosphere. In the future this technology will be widespread. People will see and feel an experience out of their own body like never before. You will be able to relive someone else's prerecorded experience. I love how the film was shot and the questions that you are left with afterward regarding the morality or consequences of using this technology.

To what, not know if half or more of what we think are our actual memories are true or not? To move freely in what way(s)? This very arthouse movie is overtly nebulous in its attempts to show great meaning and arch intellectual reach. Acting is often mediocre at best. The actors seem more like stage actors than ones used to performing in front of a camera. Characters say a number of statements like, "Imagine the possibilities of life with mnemophrenia.", or "Can't you see what this could mean for the future?". But they don't go into much detail about what it could mean aside from inferences about empathy/understanding being increased. The visual work is often impressive in the use of the computer analysis overlays and in creating a dream-type effect during the VR scenes. But I felt too often the film was meandering, repetitive.

Very interesting ideas were presented. See more 01/20/2020 Loved the film! Absolutely captivating from the very beginning. It was made of three parts, each intertwining with the others. As the story unfolds, we see how three generations of the same family are affected by the condition called Mnemophrenia. There were a lot of interesting ideas about the future presented in the film. See more 01/03/2020 It's three interesting stories woven into one feature length film. The premise is gripping when you fully understand what is going on. The style of the film is quite slow but it doesn't become a slog because it drip feeds information and lets the viewer figure out what's happening behind the scenes. The way it's shot makes it clear that there are three periods of time, each unique enough from one another to not be confusing. The overall theme is the unintended effect breakthroughs in technology have on society and about the dark side of progress. It's a great character study, and the film deserves a watch!
