Memoria

Ever since being startled by a loud ‘bang’ at daybreak, Jessica (Tilda Swinton) is unable to sleep. In Bogotá to visit her sister, she befriends Agnes (Jeanne Balibar), an archaeologist studying human remains discovered within a tunnel under construction. Jessica travels to see Agnes at the excavation site. In a small town nearby, she encounters a fish scaler, Hernan (Elkin Diaz). They share memories by the river. As the day comes to a close, Jessica is awakened to a sense of clarity.

‘Memoria’ explores worlds without time and orientation, because past, present, future, silence, noise, different regions of the world, bucket loaders, etc. all exist side by side and interact in a permanently networked universe. Our actions in all directions must be in solidarity, composed of memories that seem just as threatening as real dangers, before a radiant reality prevails.
