<P> Pearce stars as a man who , as a result of a past trauma , has anterograde amnesia ( the inability to form new memories ) and has short - term memory loss approximately every five minutes . He is searching for the persons who attacked him and killed his wife , using an intricate system of Polaroid photographs and tattoos to track information he can not remember . Memento is presented as two different sequences of scenes interspersed during the film : a series in black - and - white that is shown chronologically , and a series of color sequences shown in reverse order ( simulating for the audience the mental state of the protagonist ) . The two sequences meet at the end of the film , producing one complete and cohesive narrative . </P>
