A young man tries to reconstruct his identity through the fragmented memories of a broken past. He has everything, yet feels disconnected from the world around him, trapped in a limbo between what was and what could be. Even though everything appears normal on the surface, his thoughts constantly drift back to \u201cthe Island\u201d and to the blurred faces of those who were once his family.<\/p>\n
