The First Memory with You

Hsuan-Kuang HSIEH 2022 Taiwan, USA color 5min Chinese DCP
Could a memory exist if no one remembers it? This film is made with a set of Polaroids my mom took in Dallas, 1987, the year before I was born. The Polaroids collide with hand shadow puppetry and the optical path of Polaroid SX-70 to explore the memory from various perspectives. The hands of the mother’s and the daughter’s bridge the past and the present, conjuring the physical and inherent memory.
