White Unknown Male

Director:

U.K. 2004| 80 Minutes| color


Arriving at the end of the subway line in Coney Island on a rainy day, a handsome young man with a British accent finds himself in strange clothes, on totally alien terrain, with absolutely no idea of who he is. Frightened and alone, without a clue to his identity, he turns himself in to the police, who, after questioning, send him to the psychiatric ward of a nearby hospital. His memory has evaporated. Located through a scrap of information, a friend eventually arrives to rescue the man (now identified as Doug Bruce), and helps him to re-establish who he is, re-introducing him to his father, his sisters, his friends, his 5th Avenue apartment, and his life. The director of this documentary will be in attendance.
