PAST LIFE (2026)

Jason has a lot on his mind. In Syria, he was forced to watch helplessly as a fellow journalist got slaughtered. Years later, he still wakes up drenched in cold sweat. Yet, against the pleas of his pregnant wife, he is considering returning to the Middle East for his newspaper. What was supposed to be a relaxing evening out in the audience of a popular television show, however, decides otherwise. The hypnotist on duty unlocks violent memories in Jason, who desperately wonders if he could be a murderer. Like a ride in a dilapidated Lada with a faulty GPS, the ingenious scenario takes us along many twists and turns, shortcuts, and one-way streets to a finale that only the most intelligent among us could have seen coming. Oh, and Captain Darling from Blackadder is also in the film!
