Chinese/ Thai co-production about a man, going through a divorce, who has a procedure done which removes select memories from his mind. He later has the surgery reversed, to regain his lost memories, and finds his memory is now somehow linked with that of a killer, possibly a serial killer. A major problem is that he sees the memories the killer has * in first person *, so when he attempts to tell the local authorities, he becomes prime suspect in the double murder, and thrown into Hannibal Lector's plexiglass holding cell.
The subject of memory has always fascinated me, as I am burdened with an eidetic memory, so this film's premise obviously intrigued me, the surgical removal of painful memories, pleasurable memories, unforgettable things, things best left forgotten, so I enjoyed this film, but found it to be uneven, and a bit overlong.
