MA CHERI GRANDMERE

This film was composed conducting interviews with my grandmother, Isabel Benito LaMotte, about her life in France and Spain. Two stories were chosen from the interviews and I visually interpreted them to create scenes of memory for the audience, using images that evoke the true feelings of the senses we remember when we recall our childhood.

Starring - Isabel LaMotte, Marina Gardner & Jackson Westerlund

Written, Directed & Edited by Daphne Gardner
Interviewer & Translator - Patrick Letterii
Music - Claude Debussy "En Bateau" & J. S. Bach "Petite Fugue en G minor"

2008
