Immemory

Marker charts a haunting journey through memory, cinema, photography, war and literature tracing an itinerary or map of an imaginary country. This voyage takes us from the “Madeline” at the intersection of Proust and Hitchcock through an archive of image and text that culminates as a self-portrait.
