Tenet

Director Christopher Nolan has a fascination with time with the concept coming up repeatedly throughout his filmography whether thematically or as a storytelling mechanism.

In his second film “Memento,” Nolan tells the story in reverse because the protagonist has a form of memory loss in which his short-term memory resets every few minutes. By telling it in reverse, we are forced into the lead character's perspective.
