"The man who lost forgetfulness"

Overview

This man, through some anomaly in his nature, does not scorn that archaic humanity of the past. He is seized first by curiosity, then by compassion. He wants to understand these gestures of a time that still wounds. Faced with these "afflictions of Time" — memory, emotion, grief — he feels neither superiority nor cold pity, but an inhabited, almost revolutionary indignation: a Third-Worldist of Time, taking the side of those who still suffer from remembering, just as Che or the youth of the Sixties took the side of the oppressed. On screen, this strangeness takes shape through superimposition: hands endlessly replaying the same piece of piano music, doubled, haunted by their own past gestures — memory as a gesture that refuses to fade. A dark room, a door letting in light from elsewhere. Then the headlong flight forward: a train pulling into a station, a road unspooling into the night
