M wakes up in a field with no signs of life around him. He has no memory of where he is or who he is, and there are no clues in sight. By experiencing his memories— uncovered a little at a time—he starts to make sense of his life. Visitors from his past, including a mystery woman in a dress made of golden light, guide him through this afterlife, show him how his dying consciousness designed this world to help him come to terms with the life he lived and the person he would become. Through these visions and visitors, particularly through the memories of his past loves, M fully uncovers the life he lived. Now, he must choose where this life tells him to go next.
