We Can Still Hear You

15 min. short documentary

‘We Can Still Hear You’ is a creative short documentary that follows the filmmaker on a journey to manifest the internal and generational worlds of Obsessive Compuslive Disorder in a new and intimate way. Set around an excavation of home archive material, and a present-day trip with her half-sister to the county of their paternal lineage, the film exhibits the visual and sonic realms of the filmmaker.

​

Experimentation and abstraction, coincide with personal voiceover to interrogate the past, research its implication on the present, and further questions what future can lay ahead. Do we have the power to change our genetic destiny? And if we do, how can we?
