The Solitude of Memory

2014 | Color | 19:31

Through a metaphorical dialogue between formal aspects and characters, The Solitude of Memory elicits a profound meditation on memory and grief. José’s son, Nando, has committed suicide; and José repeatedly runs through the final words that he spoke to him. José continues his life without his son, keeping him alive through remembrance in this remarkably personal and poetic film.
