Total Recall

Paul Verhoeven
1990 United States 113 minutes English

The year is 2084. A construction worker dreams he is exploring the planet Mars with a lovely brunette. He goes to “Rekall INC” a company that sells travels and adventures by implanting false memories in the brain, and buys a “trip” to Mars. He thus will be “on holiday” from himself and play the role of a spy, what Rekall calls an “ego trip”. What happens afterwards throws him between real and virtual world, true and false events and memories, in an absolute tourism that unveils the political realities of this future society.
