When Sackarias passes away suddenly, Jon accepts an invitation to attend his memorial service, grateful to be considered one of his closest high-school friends. There is only one problem: Jon has no memory of Sackarias, or their friendship…

Jon, guilt-ridden and eager to please, attends the memorial. What follows is a high-stakes improvisation game, as Jon hopes every piece of information he finds out about Sackarias will provide comfort and meaning to his loved ones – and trigger his memory of an important friendship.

Equal parts thriller and comedy, Memorial explores loss, the malleability of memory, language and its loopholes, and the narratives we tell ourselves about those we love, while elegantly interweaving existential questions with a wry and sometimes absurd humor.
