Synopsis

Memento

Leonard Shelby is tracking down the man who raped and murdered his wife. The difficulty of locating his wife's killer, however, is compounded by the fact that he suffers from a rare, untreatable form of short-term memory loss. Although he can recall details of life before his accident, Leonard cannot remember what happened fifteen minutes ago, where he's going, or why.

The Lightest Darkness

When a neurotic private eye who struggles to finish the case takes a train voyage, his own dark secrets begin to reveal themselves.
