Memori

This film packs a serious emotional punch. It tells the story of a respected doctor facing early-onset Alzheimer's and his estranged son trying to reconnect by reviving shared memories. What makes it stand out is the combination of grounded performances, a layered script, and deeply human storytelling that transcends language and culture.

The three leads carry the film with remarkable authenticity. Their performances feel lived-in rather than performed, pulling you into their characters' struggles and emotions. The screenplay matches their intensity-every pause, every glance, and every exchange feels deliberate, revealing the nuances of strained relationships and the quiet ways love and regret surface over time.

What struck me most is how sensitively the film connects childhood memories with adult perspectives. It doesn't try to force emotions but instead allows them to build naturally, reminding us how our view of the same memory shifts as we age. Several scenes are so tender and powerful that they'll stay with you long after the credits roll, not because they're dramatic, but because they feel true.

I watched it with English subtitles, not knowing Bahasa, and it made no difference to the experience. The storytelling is so universal, and the emotions so raw, that the language barrier disappeared entirely. That's the mark of a powerful film-it speaks beyond words. It's quiet, sincere, and deeply affecting, the kind of film that lingers in your mind long after you leave it.

I wish Abid Hussain and the cast the very best and hope this film finds its way to audiences everywhere, because it deserves to be seen and remembered.

Memori is more than just a movie, it helps people truly understand Alzheimer's. It's not only about the patient, but also how it affects their family and everyone around them.

Kudos to the three lead actors, they did an amazing job. Playing such emotional and difficult roles must have been tough but every feeling on screen felt so real and raw.

I felt deeply connected while watching because I went through the same journey with my mom who is battling with the last stage of Alzheimer.

For anyone who hasn't watched it yet, I highly recommend it - 1000/10.

Great movie showing different perceptions and realities of life. Not an easy but engaging movie that keeps you watching to see the development. Balancing all aspects is something tough but shown in this movie.

Reminds you of the family ties and dear nostalgia you have of childhood too.

Do watch and support!

Touching depiction of a caring father who realises his memories are leaving him. Notwithstanding his own medical condition, he tries hard to heal what is broken in his relationship with his son. The movie brings out emotions, with some light moments too ! It's a brilliant story with superb acting. In all honesty, it's a repeat watch , a few times over !!!!!

First-time director Abid Hussain delivers an impressive and deeply personal debut with Memori, a semi-autobiographical film about the harrowing effects of Alzheimer's. The movie doesn't shy away from the cruel and often devastating impact of the disease on both the victim and their loved ones. Bolstered by a series of powerful performances, Hussain's direction brings an authenticity and raw emotion to the screen that makes Memori an essential watch for anyone who has experienced the pain of watching a loved one disappear.
