I found this video of anterograde amnesia. I think the example is very clear and everything is very well explained.

Arantza, thanks for posting this! This is the same patient (Clive Wearing) as the video that I-Chant showed in class last week, so it gives you additional insight into his functioning.
anterograde amnesia, and all amnesia for that matter, is very interesting. it's interesting that if just one part of the brain is damaged, it changes everything, and how sometimes your brain can even compensate for that disability. the human brain is indeed amazing.
This is a personal question that I´ve been discussing with a friend: would you rather suffer from anterograde or retrograde amnesia? How do you think this would affect your personality?
