About:
A dystopian drama.
The concept: In the near future, criminals are given a choice - go to prison or get their memories wiped and replaced with fictional ones so they can make a positive contribution to society. A doctor at the Memory Replacement Institute realises her past life was erased when a patient claiming to be her wife begs her to save their daughter.
