Memoria

AroView: Filmed in English and shot on location in Columbia by a Thai director, Apichatpong Weerasethakul makes cinema as seemingly impenetrable as his very name, until you actively slow down, imbibe every languorous moment and see it all start to make sense.

The spellbinding intrigue here is channeled through a top-of-her-game Tilda Swinton, who heeds the call of a haunting and mysterious sound that leads her down a lane of memory like the cinema has never quite seen.

“Memoria eludes easy categorisation while becoming a powerful meditation on connection, spiritual isolation and renewal.” ~Tim Grierson, Screen Daily

“More meditation than movie, a transfixing deep-dive into the profound challenges of relating to people and places from the outside in.” ~Eric Kohn, IndieWire
