Movie Story : After a brutal assault leaves Mark Hogancamp with no memory of his former life, he begins the long road back by building a miniature World War II-era village in his backyard. He names it Marwen and populates it with dolls that stand in for the people around him, using it to confront his trauma through imagined battles and rescues. Over time the project grows into an elaborate art installation honoring the women who matter most to him, and the courage he finds there starts to carry into his waking life.
