Synopsis/Details
Jacob is a bright and disciplined university student, admired for his focus and clear direction in life. Surrounded by classmates chasing goals and a system that rewards order and performance, he moves through his days with purpose—or so it seems.
Everything begins to shift when Jacob experiences a vivid dream—an emotional encounter with his younger self and a passion he once held dear, now long buried beneath layers of practicality. The dream lingers, its feeling unshakable, leaving Jacob unsettled. What was once clear suddenly blurs, as doubt seeps into his thoughts and his carefully charted path no longer feels certain.
As the days pass, Jacob finds himself increasingly detached from his routine. His studies lose their meaning. A once-ignored inner voice begins to grow louder. Moments that once passed unnoticed—conversations with friends, moments of stillness, and quiet observations—take on new weight, urging him to reconsider who he is becoming.
Caught between what he believes he’s supposed to do and what he might truly want, Jacob enters a period of quiet crisis. It’s not explosive or dramatic, but deeply personal—a battle between rationality and emotion, between the expectations placed on him and a dream that never fully died.
FORGOTTEN DREAM is an intimate, contemplative drama about identity, purpose, and the delicate unraveling of certainty. Through restrained storytelling and emotional honesty, it explores how the quietest moments can become turning points—and how a single dream can awaken the parts of ourselves we thought we had outgrown.
