8/10
Certainly Memorable
6 October 2022
Great Watch! The film chronicles a troubled journey into the altered consciousness of the protagonist, a modern version of the myth of Orpheus and Eurydice, the human being's vain struggle to put the pieces back together when something breaks.

The film is both bold and thought-provoking. The director moves beyond the genre boundary, using the dystopian pretext of a controlling technology-but still controlled by a human antagonist-to depict the fragility of the mind, the inherent fallacy of memory and the irremediable clash between consciousness and pure feeling.

It has an ambitious narrative structure, which takes full advantage of the spaces, settings, and all the nuances of its protagonists to stage an abstract meditation on love and on the real, or virtual, possibility of memory, a fascinating and sick mental journey. Memories of Another tells the story of a true, intense, but tormented love from both inside and outside, told with grace and toughness and the sincerity of a warning: that some mistakes one makes in life, virtual reality or not, there is no way to fix.

Whatever your reason for wanting to see it, you will find before you a film capable of touching mind and heart, brilliant and cruel, and certainly memorable!
