Is it possible to have lived a mistaken life? To have a mistaken past? If so, how would one know?
Roberto lives in a new town, but has no recollection of moving there and thinks he has always lived there. He has a yearbook from 1972, one year before he was in high school. He opens it to a picture of a little town, Cloverdale, in Northern California. He feels the warmth, the familiarity, and is convinced that it is there where his past resides. He sees a picture of a girl he has never met, yet is convinced that she is and always has been the love of his life.
His dreams and memories intertwine with the yearbook, and his new world is born.
But something is not right. He heads to Cloverdale High School in search of answers. The staff finds no connection to Roberto. They tell him, this is not your high school and that is not your yearbook. His world comes crashing down, leading to a life of homelessness and destitution, forever in psychotic episodes in search of a past that never existed.
Now we have to ask whose yearbook was it? What caused him to erase his past and to reinvent another? Is it possible to have been born to the wrong place, to the wrong people? Is it possible to have lived a mistaken life?
