Description
The most award-winning film by the main Finnish director Aki Kaurismäki and one of David Lynch's favorite films.
This story could happen to absolutely anyone. And it’s not even necessary to fall asleep on a bench at night and wait for a gang of robbers to beat you half to death. At this point, some might already guess why the film is titled as it is. It’s about a man who suddenly loses all his memories of the past. And who are we without our memories?
Grand Prix of the Cannes Film Festival. The first and only Finnish film nominated for an Oscar. The director refused to attend the ceremony in protest against the war in Iraq.
