Hollowgram

SYNOPSIS

SINOPSE

Hollowgram conjures varicolored clusters of swirling images and sounds from places real and imagined, as if looking through a flip book in a dream. Narratively, the film pilots the tension between the desire to share memories and possibilities with another and the failure of the attempt. Conceptually layered over, a defiant authorial selfhood responds to the outside interrogations that punch in, “Who do you think you are?”.
