Never saw the movie, so I don't know if this matches up with the plot, but yes, it's real. Lacuna means "gap or missing part," and amnesia is a general term to describe memory loss. Literally translated, lacunar amnesia means "gap in memory." It's a reason (but not necessarily THE reason) people seem to completely forget traumatic situations.
Sometimes the memory returns, other times, gone forever.
