C H R Y S A L I S (French)

The Story:
Set in Paris, in year 2020. State-of-the-art surgeon Professor Brugen is in a horrific crash which kills her daughter Manon. Meanwhile, hard-nosed, no-nonsense cop David Hoffman (Albert Dupontel) and his police partner/wife Sarah (Smadi Wolfman) are in a gun fight with Bulgarian secret service renegade Dimitri Nicolov (Alain Figlarz). Nicolov sadistically kills Hoffman's wife and escapes.

Hoffman tracks down Nicolov and, after a chase, he is arrested. But Nicolov tries to escape custody by grabbing - and threatening to kill - Hoffman's new partner Marie Becker (Marie Guillard). He's coldly shot dead by Hoffman, who hands in his badge and leaves the force.

Back at his apartment, Hoffman is attacked by the man he thought he'd just shot dead. He's captured and subjected to the Chrysalis machine which can erase, transfer and manipulate memories. It turns out Nicolov has stolen the machine, and is using Professor Brugen's hi-tech skills to operate it. Hoffman is freed on to the street with his recent memory a blank slate. Becker teams up with Hoffman to investigate his memory loss and find Nicolov.

We learn that Brugen has created a duplicate of her dead daughter Manon using an abducted girl called Elena, whose face has been surgically changed to look like Manon and whose own memories have been removed and are being replaced with those of Manon. The crash-mangled body of Manon is being kept alive by Professor Brugen as a mere shell from which she is stripping her daughter's identity to put into Elena. Meanwhile, the memory transfer into Elena is slow and imperfect and she feels unease with her identity.

Hoffman's investigation takes him all the way to the surgeon and clinic run by the iron hand of technology where all is not as it seems.

In fact, his daily "to do" lists are legendary. A man known for playing it safe, Frank doesn't believe in spontaneity. Every choice he makes is deliberate--designed to contribute to a well-ordered, predictable life.

But life, as he soon learns, never adheres to a strict schedule

Frank's wife, Susan (Emily Mortimer), and seven-year-old daughter, Jesse (Matreya Fedor), find his obsession charming in small doses, but as a steady diet it can be very frustrating. One morning, Susan attempts to loosen her husband's scheduling stranglehold by adding ten minutes to his day. But, by setting the clock backward instead of forward, she inadvertently unleashes a series of mishaps that turn his meticulously ordered life upside down. A belligerent ferryman, a ruthless seductress, a reluctant mother-to-be and the secret amor of his best friend, Buddy (Stuart Townsend), combine to send his life into complete chaos.

As his life unravels in several directions simultaneously, however, a stunning family revelation forces Frank to look fate squarely in the eye. Shaken to his core, he starts living entirely "in the moment," allowing him to defy the conventions that have heretofore defined him. Those carefully coordinated index cards that had once kept his life in perfect order now become a deck of chance as Frank scribbles spontaneous ideas on random cards, shuffles, chooses and follows the luck of the draw...with unexpected results.

Frank is about to discover that not even an efficiency expert armed with timetables and index cards can change the serendipitous nature of family and friendship, love and forgiveness.
