The story of alex lewis

In Memory, Liam Neeson plays Alex Lewis, an experienced assassin known for his precision and discretion. On the verge of retirement, he receives one final mission, but discovers that the target is a young girl. Faced with a moral dilemma, he refuses to complete the job because it violates his code of ethics and asks for the contract to be canceled.

The conflict and the quest for revenge

After refusing the mission, Alex discovers that the girl has been killed by another assassin, which puts him in the path of FBI agent Vincent Serra, played by Guy Pearce. Alex decides to eliminate a child trafficking ring, but faces a serious health problem: memory loss that compromises his mission and his own safety.

Modern version of a belgian classic

The feature film starring Liam Neeson is a remake of the 2003 Belgian thriller The Memory of a Killer (De Zaak Alzheimer), directed by Erik Van Looy. The Hollywood production modernizes the original story and opts for a grander approach.

Behind-the-scenes trivia

The film features a coincidence with the cult classic Memento, released in 2000 and directed by Christopher Nolan. While Guy Pearce's character tattooed information on his body in Memento, Liam Neeson's character takes notes on his own body to cope with memory loss, with Guy Pearce himself even featuring in the cast of the new feature. Furthermore, the childhood photos of Alex Lewis shown in the production are actual pictures of Liam Neeson as a child.
