Remainder

Hit by a falling object in a freak accident, a man awakens from a coma with millions of pounds in compensation and his memory gone. All that remains is a fragmentary image, which the man physically reconstructs in the hope of triggering a more complex memory. This leads him to an unsolved crime and the secret of his undoing.
One of two films by celebrated video artist Omer Fast screened in the Festival’s program, Remainder is a striking, stylish adaptation of Tom McCarthy’s novel.
Filmography: Continuity (2016), Everything That Rises Must Converge (2013), Nostalgia, (2009).
