The Faceless Man
Mystery thriller about a man who lost his memory after the accident and a woman caused the accident.
A man gets seriously injured in a traffic accident on a quiet national highway. After he regains consciousness, the man undergoes facial plastic surgery. He gets a new face but loses his memory. Then the woman who caused the accident visits him. The police try to find the man’s family but to no avail. Out of guilt and hidden trauma, the woman begins to take care of the man. His brain damage endows his new powers, which makes him popular in the hospital. Meanwhile, the man and the woman develop romantic feelings for each other within the delicate offender-victim relationship. They go and visit the site of the car accident together. Back in the hospital, terrible news awaits them. It turns out that the man is a prime suspect in the recent serial murder case. Yet, because his memory has been clinically removed, he can neither remember nor admit his crime. Controversy arises in society as to how to make him pay for his sin. Then, they encounter a shocking revelation about their relationship.
Is it possible for the victim and the perpetrator to fall in love? If the latter loses memory due to medical procedures, is that person still a criminal? Is the victim’s revenge justified? These are some of the questions that this film asks. It’s a mystery thriller that deals with the irony of human sin and looks into men’s consciousness of original sin.
