A kind of arthouse MEMENTO, this is an assured directorial debut. One night on the way home with his girlfriend Simone (Bonnevie), young photographer Alex (Kaas) is instantly smitten with Aimee (also Bonnevie) and follows her to her hotel. The next morning, Alex awakens to find that, literally, everything is different and no one remembers him. Shot in chilly Copenhagen, this elegantly styled, Borgesian thriller won the Camera d’Or at Cannes 2003.
