Synopsis:

​

An auto-fictional piece that re-purposes personal home videos from the director’s childhood to tell a coming-of-age story that juxtaposes its ordinary imagery to a mythological narrative.

 

Statement:

“No man is an island entire of itself; every man 

is a piece of the continent, a part of the main”

- John Donne

 

An experimental film that utilizes home videos as a tool for creating a personal mythology through an auto-fictional narrative that explores and challenges issues surrounding the "masculine ideal" - such as generational trauma and toxic masculinity.

 

These recontextualized images are accompanied by a poetic narration that harkens back to the oral tradition associated with myths and some of its most prominent tropes, such as the tension of nature x nurture and the act of migration as a means of personal transformation.
