The film began with a shot of a hospital room empty of bustle, sun slanting across a folded sheet. A boy, Arin, wakes coughing up a world he barely recognizes: a city where names are forgotten, where everyone carries a small silver coin stamped with the same symbol.

Arin discovers that he remembers different things—songs his grandmother hummed, a recipe for bitter tea, a lullaby in a language he cannot place. He remembers the word alive.
