Two strangers, Sam and Ryan, meet each other in a stroke of fate. Ryan documents everything in his life with a camera, and Sam, a lonely troublemaker, welcomes him into her life.
"What I Remember" is my attempt at experimenting with the boundaries of found footage, utilizing grounded drama within the style of found footage to create an immersive and unique experience. I began working on this in January 2023 alongside my next documentary, and it grew to become an incredibly special project to me. I fell in love with these characters, this world, and the way I was able to translate much of what I love about Unfiction into a new form. I'm delighted that I was able to share this at the Unnamed Footage Film Festival in 2024, and that I'm able to share it with you now. I intend to expand upon "What I Remember" in the future - but you'll have to wait and see!
