In the year 2092, humanity has achieved the impossible: the conquest of mortality. The world is captivated by the story of Nemo Nobody, the last mortal man, who is now 118 years old and nearing the end of his life. As he reflects on his past, psychiatrist Dr. Feldheim employs hypnosis to help Nemo recall the intricate details of his existence. A journalist also interviews him, leading to a fascinating exploration of his memories from three pivotal ages: 9, 15, and 34. Throughout these recollections, Nemo presents conflicting narratives, suggesting that his life has unfolded in multiple, divergent ways.
Nemo shares a profound belief that before birth, children possess knowledge of their entire lives. However, at the moment of conception, the so-called Angels of Oblivion erase this knowledge. Remarkably, Nemo claims that he was overlooked by these Angels, allowing him to “remember” various possible futures. This concept sets the stage for a complex narrative that intertwines love, loss, and the choices that define our lives.
