REVIEW:

What is a film? To me it’s an experience that you view through your own experiences. Life’s not easy. Not perfect. Many times, it’s hard. Things happen to you that you didn’t deserve and it leaves scars in your heart and emotions.

Memory is one of those cold and realistic dramas, focused on the acting and dialogue, but not effects or plot twists. But that does not mean it lacks moments of love, affection, and sensitivity. It was a good ride with strong storytelling and good acting, and it revolves around the uncomfortable and important topic of mental health.

I appreciated the films unique look at dementia and whilst it’s certainly one you have to be in the right mindset for, its worth watching if you get the chance.

Trigger warning: if you’ve dealt with sexual assault on any level this may be hard to watch.
