Found Footage Film

This audiovisual material is a combination of one VHS Cassette (43min) from 1999 with a sound record (2hrs and 40min) from 2013.

I wanted “Untold” to become a mirror that I see and reflect myself as an image but face my mother as she narrates the missing pieces in our relationship throughout her relationship with my grandmother. When the narration goes deeper, more parts of my soul were getting unlocked as the astrologer goes through my mother’s past memories during and before my existence. Motherhood thus becomes the two sided theme of this work as my mother enlightens my skeptical view about her while she is realizing her inner problems with my grandmother. 

This film is going beyond three generations but it aims offering a deeper understanding of motherhood through familial connections.
