Stories we Tell
Lazy Girls Film Club presents an intimate exploration of memory and how individuals construct their own personal mythologies, from Oscar-winning filmmaker Sarah Polley.
Director: Sarah Polley
108 mins / 2012 / Canada
Lazy Girls Film Club presents…
The celebrated Canadian filmmaker, actor, and essayist Sarah Polley (Away From Her, Take This Waltz, Women Talking) directs this unique documentary tracing her parents’ relationship and examining her mother’s complex identity.
Through interviews with family members and friends, archive footage, photos, and Super-8 films, this riveting investigation develops into a thoughtful meditation on the importance and fallibility of memory. As Polley uncovers unexpected revelations and conflicting accounts, we are prompted to reflect on the nature of storytelling and the ways in which we know (or fail to know) those closest to us.
Before the film, Lazy Girls Film Club will host a zine-writing workshop ‘Do you remember? XOXO’ at 4pm earlier in the day (booked separately) in collaboration with Story Time. Through prompts and play, Lily Gutierrez will guide you in creating a personal zine based around the theme of memory.
This film is F-Rated. The F-Rating is applied to all films which are directed by women and/or written by women. Find out more about F-Rating.
