Plot summary:
The film centers on a military veteran who returns to his native
Vermont suffering from bouts of amnesia. When he is accused of
murder and lands in an asylum, a well-meaning doctor puts him
on a heavy course of experimental drugs, restrains him in a jacket-like
device, and locks him away in a body drawer of the basement morgue.
The process sends him on a journey into the future, where he can
foresee his death (but not who did it or how) in four day's time.
Now the only question that matters is: can the woman he meets
in the future save him?
