One week after a seemingly harmless car accident, Richard Minnich wakes up with total amnesia. He no longer recognizes his wife and five children, and has a great deal of difficulty with the simplest daily tasks. The doctors are baffled, as there is no evidence of brain damage or other physical causes. Sixteen years later, filmmaker Rick Minnich (Richard’s son) returns with a camera in search of answers to why his father’s memory still hasn’t returned. Rick uncovers startling facts about his father’s memory loss. Was Richard really struck by a horrible affliction, or was he perhaps trying to escape from a life he could no longer lead?
