Set in a not-too-distant future world, implanted microchips record all moments of one's life. The chips are removed upon death and images are edited by a cutter into a highlight reel for loved ones who want to remember the deceased. Robin Williams plays a troubled cutter who witnesses a terrible secret he cannot edit out and finds his own life in jeopardy.
