Documentary. Since a devastating illness destroyed his memory function 22 years ago, Danny MacNee has created an extraordinary way of coping and navigating through life.

Filmed over a year, this is an insightful and entertaining documentary providing an intimate portrait of a man determined to piece together his own history and overcome the massive challenges he faces every day. Award-winning director Darren Hercher takes us into Danny's world with a mixture of animation and an observational approach which is both sensitive and probing.
