Samantha (Anja Savcic) is a young girl who juggles her life around looking after her mother, her job at a cafe and her Sociology studies at university. It’s a pretty simple existence until her friend Mark (Levi Meaden) introduces her to his friend Marissa (Sarah Troyer) and a smooth talking British chap by the name of Victor (Rory J. Saper), who recently quit university and just like when you stay in a hotel – decided to take home a small memento.
When I say a small memento, I mean a device that allows the users to infiltrate and take control of somebody else’s mind and body. Of course, given this opportunity to see the world through someone else’s eyes...

Many films deal with the aftermath of a family death by becoming about how their characters live with the pain — it changing them into different people. Some distinctly show them living despite it instead. Rather than depict Connor (Marton Csokas) and Alise (Vera Farmiga) as the death of their baby girl just ten months prior consumes them, Jordan Roberts’ Burn Your Maps portrays their desire to move on after their transformations are complete. They’re searching for a future they hope exists but cannot yet see. They’ve dealt with grief already (at least they’re frustrated enough to believe they have), so now it’s time to embrace the life that remains. While their son Wes (Jacob Tremblay) readies for what this entails, we’re still uncertain if they are too.
But don’t think this story is one steeped in heavy drama from start to finish without room to breathe.
