Synopsis

Suffering from a childhood heavily traumatized by the ills of a highly dysfunctional family and his parents’ widely publicized divorce, a youth finds recourse in a life of decadence and nihilism. Relishing in one-minute pleasures and living for the moment was his way of running away from the harsh cruelties of reality. But on an unexpected night of frivolity, he seems to have found something worth living for, something that compels him to question his place in society and the values he lives for. He found love. But is it strong enough to turn him around from a life of self-indulgence and promiscuity? Or will it waste away what's left of his soul? Remember Me is an implicit examination on the human need to make sense of its own existence and the consequences of its absence in a nihilistic mind. Ultimately, it forces the question - if there was one thing in life finally worth living for, is it worth giving up everything else to keep it?
