The Film Recollection Shows Us What Would Happen If Technology Let Us Trade Our Memories

Writer and filmmaker, 33-year old Eva Konstantopoulos wanted to explore our collective digital dystopia and look at what would happen if memory became a commodity through her new short film Re/collection. What if technology would let you trade your memories for something you wanted to change? The short sci-fi film had its world debut at the Sun Valley Film Festival in Sun Valley, Idaho in March, 2017. It took more than a year to make the $40,000, 18-minute film about the commercialization of the human experience. Konstantopolous said she wanted to tell a story about the consequences on human lives if you could buy and sell memories and how technology would play a role in the commoditization of memories.
