In 2092, humanity has achieved quasi-mortality. Mr. Nobody (Jared Leto) is a media sensation as the last mortal. The world awaits his natural death. He has lost his memories and there are no records of him. Dr. Feldheim tries to recover his memories. An angel erases newborns of their future memories but the angel misses Nemo Nobody. He is born with memories of all of his possible futures. Baby Nemo chooses his parents (Rhys Ifans, Natasha Little). His path splits at a train station when his parents split up. He has three possible loves with Elise (Sarah Polley), Anna (Diane Kruger), or Jeanne.
Belgian director creates an unusual sci-fi film. Jared Leto does have an otherworldly quality. It's a little too ambitious. The multiple timeline memories are narratively scattered. The tension is diffused and confused. The various memories become disjointed. While beautiful, the film is emotionally distant as one must try to follow the construction.
