Director Harkness and his half brother go on a search for their long-lost mother. Using every video format possible, including a vast 25 years of footage of their family, he crafts a film that is part love letter and part mystery. He weaves together a mosaic of the Harkness family’s past, present and future, exploring themes of love, loss, and intergenerational trauma. This inventive film has been praised for its heart-warming storytelling and is a testament to perseverance in the face of uncertainty.
