Imagine if your entire memory were suddenly wiped away.

The true story of Doug Bruce who woke up on Coney Island with total amnesia. This documentary follows him as he rediscovers himself and the world around him.
Top critics, in their words
It doesn't help Bruce's cause that he is seen in archive footage to have been a smug, arrogant fellow; it's tempting to imagine that his memory has abandoned him in exasperation. A case of amnesia as overdue self-discovery, perhaps?
Given that this retrograde memory loss has cleansed Doug Bruce's perceptions and made him an altogether more open and emotional person, Unknown White Male suggests that amnesia could be the ultimate chicken soup for the soul.
In the end, it fails to offer any insight into the philosophical question it poses.
The whole movie feels sorta like a snow job.
Unknown White Male has moments you won't forget, appropriate praise for a documentary about amnesia.
