Mnemophrenia (2019)
21KMnemophrenia: Directed by Eirini Konstantinidou. With Freya Berry, Robin King, Tim Seyfert, Tallulah Sheffield. Mnemophrenia is a futuristic drama about a new psychosis that arises from advanced virtual reality technology, which causes people to be unable to distinguish between real and artificial memories.
“Great film albeit disturbing. I think reality is hard enough to find already so to live in a fantasy knowingly thinking it not to be reality will blur our already tenuous link with what we think to be real still further. The film brings up questions like these and left me in wonder and trepidation as to the future of mankind. The director has, I believe, done this deliberately so as bring the audience into the subject, leaving them to work it out for themselves. The girl with a VR boyfriend really shows the double edged sword of this technology. Indeed it is a technology which will become more available and probably along the very same limes as Dr Konstantinidou is suggesting.”
