A man is found one morning in the bushes
of a city plaza in Prague.
He is taken to a hospital where the doctors confirm that,
although his eyes are wide open, he is dead.
There is no heartbeat or sign of life, except, strangely enough,
his body temperature is normal.
No matter, he's certified as dead and sent into cold storage
to wait for an autopsy.
I'm alive, the man thinks, can't you see I'm alive?
The man, Gregory (Jean Sorel), isn't dead but he's paralyzed
and helpless to alert his condition to anyone.
As the doctors prepare for the autopsy, Gregory thinks back
to yesterday, when he was making plans to help his girlfriend
(Barbara Bach) get out of the country.
Gregory begins piecing together the mystery of what happened
to him in fractured bits of memory, but will solving the puzzle
do him any good?
