In the "Mirror City" under holographic surveillance, memory is a commodity that can be tampered with and discarded. Ling Chen, a low-level memory scavenger, accidentally picked up the memory fragments of his deceased sister during a job. In order to explore the truth about his sister's "resurrection from the dead", he stepped into the labyrinth of lies woven by the elite "Memory Weavers", fought against ubiquitous surveillance, and tried to awaken the tampered past. Every exploration is a torture of the meaning of his own existence, and the price of the truth may be a reality that he cannot bear.
