The Man Who Woke Up With No Name | The Benjamin Kyle Mystery

Echo Trace tells cinematic stories based on real events exploring the world through power, history, and human nature.

A man was found unconscious behind a Burger King — alive, but with no name, no memory, and no past.
When officials searched his identity, they found nothing. No social security number. No records. No trace that he had ever existed.

This is the true story of Benjamin Kyle, one of the strangest identity mysteries in modern America.
From DNA tests and FBI databases to theories of trauma, crime, and deliberate erasure — every answer only led to deeper questions.

Was he a forgotten victim? A man running from his past? Or something even stranger?
We tell what’s worth telling.
Tracing the truths, the people, and the moments left in silence.
Echo Trace has no limits — only stories.
