Dud

A man wakes up in the hospital after a fall and has lost his autobiographical memory. Reluctantly, he confronts the 'other' he is supposed to have been, a rather colorless French teacher at a high school. His wife and daughter visit him - no memories. What could their marriage have been like, their family life? His apparent best friend, a fellow teacher, shares stories of their mutual frustrations and dreams of escape. In the files on 'his' laptop, he begins to search for his story and processes, at the doctor's suggestion, his own notes from the past summer, which are now foreign to him. Before the accident, the French teacher had spent a sabbatical in Royan on the French coast. Apparently, he was born there during the last tumult of the war and was brought to Switzerland as an orphan. The more he learns about this person.
