Experiencing Interruptions?

Remember Us

'Remember Us' is a story of Winston Myers, an overthrown monarch, whose memories get wiped.

As Winston has less and less to hold onto, his friend, Richard Spector, must persuade him to surrender the most precious memories to save Winston's life from the agents of the revolution.

'Who controls the past controls the future', George Orwell said in '1984', but what sort of power a man has if he can manipulate the very essence of past - the memories?

If the memories go, what will be left of us?
