Short Film ideas

These idea are little snippets that could not hold a narrative but pose an interesting idea. Probably more possible to do soon but again they are just ideas that may lead somewhere or not.

'Forget me not'

Man suffering from amnesia. Mostly filmed in empty room.
"why do we not remember things from before we were 2 years old? Because our brains take more time to develop memory banks. Does that mean if we stayed un born for an extra 2 years we would remember everything?
Elephants have 2 year pregnancies. Is that why they say elephants never forget?
I remember riding a train when I was 4, will I remember that tomorrow? Or will I forget it and not notice. Something I might need, gone.
Why do we forget? We walk into a room and forget why, where did the thought go? It cant still be somewhere in our heads otherwise we could find it again and It can't have left our heads other wise we wouldn't remember it later on. Is there a place where all lost memories go to either be returned or forgotten forever? No, because memories can't just pop in your head from outside otherwise anything could pop in. We'd find ourselves remeniscing about great uncle's who never existed to us.
Maybe, if the memory is still in here I can find it, I just have to look in the right places.
Do I even have a degree? I remember year 6, year 9, year 12 then...
Her face. That's all but there's more, like a shadow, hinting that something more real and accessable creating it. Teasing you of something you want more than anything but can see no evidence of other than the shadow. Other than the face."

Man, scared of huge wall with 'knowledge' written on it. Cannot get over, scared. Giant shoe kicks it and it slides into steps so he can climb them
