[edit] Introduction

A man is being chased down an alley. He ends up in a shelter without any recollection of who he is, just that his memories are stored in a small box he is carrying.

[edit] Opening narration

"Do our memories define our identity? If we're merely the sum of our experiences, what do we become when those experiences are lost?"

[edit] Closing narration

"The same qualities that make each of us unique, can also prevent us from changing who we are. Even if it might be a change for the better."
