Reset - The Art of Disappearing and the Consequences of Starting Over

In the documentary Reset we meet and follow five people who have chosen to disappear - to find out if it is possible to disappear, start over and perhaps become a different person.

An ex-criminal fakes his death in the waves in Florida, a runaway girl turned adventurer and escapes to a deserted island, a man flees the ”perfect life”, changes name five times and settles down in a parallell society in the Texas desert, and two religious hermits provide a solitary retreat for people who want to ”disappear”. Shot in Bulgaria, Texas and North Carolina this documentary investigates if it is possible to start over as someone else. What are the dramatic consequences - and what hard earned wisdom might they have acquired? Director, Jesper Wachtmeister.
