Can personal fictionalised memories emerge out of empathy of the historical experiences of others? Can objects that are charged with historical and political valences galvanise us into progressive actions by triggering lost pasts and these manufactured memories? Or is this merely schizophrenic madness? 

Interweaving the present with historical events such as World War I, Cable Street Battle in 1936 in the UK and the Cultural Revolution in China in 1966, the film speculates whether chance empathetic encounters of objects embedded with histories, be it personal, collective or cultural, can evoke memories that do not belong to you, thereby galvanise positive actions.
