Reverse Groundhog Day
"You & I, we both live in the same world.
But each of our worlds are different."
This would be a reverse groundhog day! A woman suffers from dementia-like symptoms after a car accident. She lives each day as a fresh one, with no memories of past day, but retaining memories till one year ago.
It sounds weird in words. As in an affair one could have loved her for over a year, but to her he will appear only an acquaintance. Whereas an ex-partner from 5 years in the past can just easily appear to have more significance to her over him. But as it is with the magic in Japanese films, everything ends up convincing!
