A disorienting psychological thriller that uses disfigurement, virtual reality, and narrative fragmentation to explore regret, identity, and the blurred boundary between dream and waking life.

David Aames has it all: wealth, good looks and gorgeous women on his arm. But just as he begins falling for the warmhearted Sofia, his face is horribly disfigured in a car accident. That's just the beginning of his troubles as the lines between illusion and reality, between life and death, are blurred.
