2025英国·牙买加短片
导演:Hope Strickland
Languid and immersive, a river holds a perfect memory is an itinerant exploration of the interplay between human life and bodies of water as they relate to mobility and the Anthropocene. Contrasting disparate but interlinked sites, we drift between archival imagery of industrialising Lancashire and recent diaristic footage shot on Jamaican waterways – from sunlit raft meanders by day, to the depths of bioluminescent lagoons at night. Grounding questions surface amidst a textured organic soundscape, with the film bearing witness to the reservoirs of memories, racialised histories and transformative labour practices contained within waterways.
