A man and his elderly father take a journey to an offshore island. Believing this to be their final trip, the son desperately captures their moments together with his newly bought secondhand digital camera. Suddenly, the pictures are inexplicably erased, and there's no way to restore them. A reflection on the modern human's reliance on digital technology, this father-son drama shows that we can use technology to store memories, but no gadget can make them for us. After all, how the memories are made is more worth remembering than the memories themselves.
