Leonard (Guy Pearce) is a man who is battling to come back to normal life after the fierce assault and murder of his beloved wife. His issues are not the same as those of other people in his circumstance; he was beaten seriously by the man who slaughtered his significant other. The most noteworthy sign of Leonard's wounds is that his momentary memory has been annihilated; he is incapable for holding any new memories and must resort to plentiful note-taking and Polaroid photos so as to monitor what befalls him through the span of a day (he's even inked himself with a couple of critical data).
Leonard only remembers that his wife was fiercely killed and he's persuaded that the guilty roam freely. Leonard is fixated on the thought of delivering retribution against the man who has destroyed his life, and he embarks to discover him, finding support from Natalie (Carrie-Anne Moss) and Teddy (Joe Pantoliano), who claims to be Leonard's companion, despite the fact that Leonard detects that he can't be trusted. Memento is a brilliant adaptation by Christopher Nolan from a short story by his brother Jonathan Nolan.
