Memoria

“Graced by Tilda Swinton’s emptied-out performance as a woman haunted by a strange sound whose origins she is obsessed with uncovering, Memoria eludes easy categorisation while becoming a powerful meditation on connection, spiritual isolation and renewal.”~Tim Grierson, Screen Daily

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.
