Prague, 2041. Every person has a constitutional right to a full natural life. Unnatural deaths are now reversible thanks to regular memory uploads. When a murder victim cannot be brought back, detective Trochinowska starts investigating. A captivating futuristic crime story about everlasting life that perfectly embodies the new wave of genre cinema from central Europe.

The human condition makes everyone of us think about immortality at one point or another. Restore Point chooses to explore the question in a near future where the right to a long life is enshrined in the law. The film’s world remains realistic and allows for strong audience immersion, especially thanks to robust world-building and the creation of a futuristic Prague that doesn’t stray from its roots on the Vlatva.

For his first feature film, Prague based director Robert Hloz brings back science fiction to the Czech Republic. After making several short films, including Transient Consciousness (in which he explored how technology can heal trauma from sexual assaults), he continues to study the relationship between society and technology in this ambitious production.
