Overview
A 30-year-old man, who has been in a coma since birth, is finally restored to consciousness by a breakthrough brain operation. Although physically an adult, the man is "reborn" in the eye of an infant; the doctors caring for him must teach him to walk, talk and prepare for life in the outside world. Tension builds as he escapes from the hospital, wanders among people who do not realize his identity, and is hunted by the police.

How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A deeply unsettling sci-fi thought experiment about consciousness itself, following a man learning to perceive the world for the first time from an adult body, forcing us to reconsider what it means to be human. The film builds from clinical drama into a paranoid thriller as his awakening collides with a society unprepared for him.
