Memories tell us the story of who we are. If those memories vanish, whose stories will take their place? Phil, a middle-aged farmhand working on a remote Scottish island suffers amnesia following a stroke. A lonely local woman, Millie helps him acclimate back to his life and claims they were once in a relationship before his accident.  This is a fragile lie that Millie must protect to keep their burgeoning romance alive, but at what cost?

★★★★ “The pace of the action is slow and measured and the performances are nuanced.” Out in Perth Lezly Herbert

“Bouli Lanners embraces the ordinary to create something extraordinary, managing to make forgetting into something memorable.” Sydney Arts Guide Richard Cotter
